Description

Suffolk County Council is seeking to appoint a Contractor to receive and process Garden Waste. The waste is expected to be delivered directly to the processing site by Ipswich Borough Council, Babergh District Council, Mid Suffolk District Council and West Suffolk Council. The Authority is interested in solutions which minimise the overall cost and environmental impact of the service. Consequently, the future procurement will consider the transport distance between collection areas and treatment facilities, together with associated haulage impacts and treatment costs, as part of the evaluation methodology. Processing should create a composted material, to PAS100 standards, suitable to be sold as soil improver or to be spread on agricultural land as a composted material. The contract/s will be between the successful Contractor/s and Suffolk County Council, who are acting on behalf of the District and Borough Councils. Interested providers will be expected to work flexibly with Suffolk County Council throughout the Local Government re-organisation (LGR) period. The revised Suffolk structure is expected to commence April 2028 and is likely to result in changes to boundaries which may have impacts on tonnages delivered under each contract awarded, however we cannot provide clarity on this at the current point in time. Estimated annual tonnages including trade waste expected (but not guaranteed) below: Lot 1 - Babergh and Mid Suffolk District Councils - Tonnage - 14,400 Lot 2 - Ipswich Borough Council - Tonnage - 5,700 Lot 3 - West Suffolk Council - Tonnage - 11,900 Estimated contract values including optional extension periods: Lot 1 - Babergh and Mid Suffolk District Councils - £ 2,950,000 Lot 2 - Ipswich Borough Council - £1,150,000 Lot 3 - West Suffolk Council - £2,400,000 Please note all estimated values are ex. Vat. These figures are based on estimated tonnages and the Council does not guarantee any volumes or spend.
