How to win: Market Engagement for the Provision of Managed Waste Services

About this contract

Following completion of preliminary market engagement, the Authority has reviewed its proposed procurement strategy for waste management services. The original intention was to procure a Total Managed Waste Service contract covering all waste streams. However, feedback received during market engagement, together with the Authority's subsequent review, has resulted in a revised approach to market. The Authority now intends to undertake four separate procurement exercises as follows: General, Recycling, Glass and Food Waste Services – procurement anticipated to be issued in Summer 2026. Clinical Waste Services – procurement anticipated to be issued in Summer 2026. Confidential Waste Services – procurement anticipated to be issued in Autumn 2026. WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) Services – procurement anticipated to be issued in Winter 2026/27. The Authority reserves the right to amend the scope, structure and timing of these procurements. Organisations with an interest in these opportunities are advised to monitor Find a Tender for further information and the publication of future procurement documents.
