Decision details

Councillor Adrian Lowe, Executive Member (Customer, Advice and Streetscene) presented the confidential report of the Director (Customer and Digital). 

The report seeks approval for the award of the 10 year plus eleven week waste and recycling collection contract to the most economically advantageous tender with an optional two year extension.  The report also updates Members on the changes to a number of ancillary waste and recycling services.

Decision:

To approve the recommendations within the report. 

Reasons for recommendation(s)

The tender evaluation and award process followed the procedure agreed at Executive Cabinet on 14 December 2017.  The tender submitted by the winning bidder is the most economically advantageous tender.

Alternative options considered and rejected

To not agree the contract award and award to an alternative bidder would fail to comply with the Council’s procurement rules and Public Contracts Regulations and delay the mobilisation for the new contract.
