The Supply of Services Relating to the Treatment and Energy Recovery/Disposal of Residual Waste Arisings

arc21 is establishing a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS), divided into four Lots, for the provision of services relating to the treatment and energy recovery or disposal of Member Councils’ residual waste arisings. Lot 1 predominantly incorporates residual kerbside collections and residual waste from commercial/trade collections, which may be mixed with other residual waste streams. Lot 2 predominantly incorporates residual waste from Household Waste Recycling Centres which may be mixed with other residual waste streams. Lot 3 predominantly incorporates combined residual kerbside waste from commercial/trade collections and Household Waste Recycling Centre waste which may be mixed with other residual waste streams. Lot 4 predominantly incorporates other residual waste streams such as street litter, bulky waste and fly tipped waste and which may include waste arising from bonfires that has not or cannot be combined in any of the Lots. Within each of the Lots there may also be a requirement for the Contractor(s) to provide a delivery point(s) within a specified range; the loading of waste and/or an element of waste transport. The DPS is a two-stage process. There is no intention to limit the minimum and maximum number of service providers. In the initial setup stage, all service providers that meet the selection criteria and are not excluded must be admitted to the DPS. The DPS will be open to entrants, throughout its life, who meet the minimum criteria. Further information on the selection process can be found within the procurement documents. In addition to the specific Participating Bodies detailed in the notice call-off competitions may include waste from NI Councils who are not constituent councils of arc21.
