Residual Waste Contract

Description

East London Waste Authority (ELWA) is seeking to procure residual waste treatment services for Contract Waste delivered to the Contractor by the Authority.
The service requirements will be divided into three separate contract Lots, which will be based on an exclusivity percentage of ELWA’s Contract Waste, as follows:
Lot 1: Contract Waste: Exclusivity - 45% (circa. 148,950 tonnes per annum)
Lot 2: Contract Waste: Exclusivity - 30% (circa. 99,300 tonnes per annum)
Lot 3: Contract Waste: Exclusivity - 25% (circa. 82,750 tonnes per annum)
Applicants may apply for one, two or three Lots. The Authority will apply the selection criteria outlined in the procurement documents to limit the number of applicants taken through to the dialogue stage.
Bidders should note that, should they submit a Tender for more than one Lot, they must be able to deliver the Services in relation to each such Lot for which they are successful. Bidders should confirm, if submitting a Tender for more than one Lot, that it can deliver all of the relevant Services and tonnage in relation to all such Lots.
Although the Authority intends to conduct a staged procedure, it does not intend to reduce the number of bidders down during the dialogue stage by applying the award criteria.

ELWA was established on 1 January 1986 as a statutory joint waste disposal authority. It is responsible for the treatment and disposal of Local Authority Collected Waste collected by (or on behalf of) the London Boroughs of Barking and Dagenham, Havering, Newham and Redbridge (“the Constituent Councils”). This Residual Waste Contract is being procured to ensure Contract Waste is treated and disposed of through the most economic and sustainable solutions.
The successful contractor(s) will ensure Contract Waste is treated in accordance with the tendered proposals.
The lotted exclusivity percentage of 45% is a split of ELWA’s combined total residual waste.
The Contractor will be paid a monthly payment for the quantities of Contract Waste processed, minus any performance deductions.
ELWA’s existing sites at Jenkins Lane and Frog Island will be made available on a non-mandatory basis for the delivery of waste reception and transfer services. The operation of these facilities is not included in this contract and will be procured under a separate contract.


Bidders may propose their own reception and transfer point as part of their submission for each Lot. Bidders may provide a maximum of one reception and transfer point within the local area to accept Contract Waste directly.


Bidders may only propose a maximum of two Contractor Treatment Sites and must allocate an annual percentage of the awarded Lot size into each facility. The Authority will dialogue on any such split to consider any related logistical issues at the Authority Delivery Points, for instance to avoid partial loads.
The existing services are currently outsourced, and TUPE may apply.

Complete Tender Coverage

Following Brexit, the new official Find a Tender system has been developed by UK Government to detail all public procurement contract opportunities expected to be over £122, 976 for Central Government or £189,330 for the remainder of the public sector e.g. NHS contracts, Local Authority contracts, Housing Association contracts. Publishing requirements for all of the public sector are in place to ensure transparency, fairness and open competition.

All UK public sector opportunities under these values, but over £10,000 for central government or over £25,000 for other public sector organisations, are still required to be published on Contracts Finder. Scotland, Wales and NI also have their own dedicated sites: Public Contracts Scotland, Sell2Wales, eSourcing NI and eTendersNI.

Complete Tenders have centralised and consolidated all of this information into a single, easy to use platform that is updated hourly with all new opportunities.
