Glasgow City Council provides an uplift service for bulk items of domestic waste for residents in the city. Residents are also able to take bulk waste to four recycling centres. Due to changes in residents’ recycling activity there has been an increase in the tonnage dealt with under this contract. On average, 48,000 tonnes per annum of bulk waste is now bulked at our transfer stations for onward processing. Bulk waste will be delivered by the council or collected by the contractor from one of three waste transfer stations. It is estimated that 75% of tonnage will be delivered by the council and 25% of tonnage will be collected by the contractor however these levels may vary.
The Council is committed to diverting waste from landfill and to increase the level of recycling in the city. This contract will contribute towards this commitment. The contractor will be required to treat bulk waste to maximise recycling, re-use, treatment and diversion of waste from landfill. It is a requirement of this contract that a minimum of 60% of the bulk waste materials are recycled. The contractor will be required to demonstrate this via monthly management information reporting which will be monitored via Key Performance Indicators.
Contractors are to provide detail, via the management information reporting as to where the council's bulk waste materials are sent for recycling or further treatment. All further recycling or treatment is to be in line with SEPA’s (or any equivalent) licensing and regulatory requirements.
For the purposes of this Contract the Council has set a maximum average round trip distance of 70 miles to the contractor’s treatment premises. It is detailed in the ITT documents how this will be assessed. Any bidder that does not meet this criteria will not be progressed to the evaluation stage. This is a pass/fail criteria.
As part of the tender, bidders are required to take a minimum of one trial load from each waste transfer station prior to submitting their bid. This is a mandatory requirement for bidding.
This contract will be let on a one lot basis this being the most effective way for council operations to manage the contract.

- Change The overall nature of the contract remains unchanged., Need for modification brought about by circumstances which a diligent contracting authority/entity could not foresee: An increase to the volume of bulky waste the council sends for processing has meant the council is on course to exceed the value of the contract and cannot take up the options of extension. The council now receives an additional circa 20,000 tones of bulky waste per annum which is not something it could have foreseen based on previous annual tonnages. There are various socio-economic, customer behaviour and operational factors that may have contributed to this increase and additional time is required to work on a new tender to assess what impact, if any, the easing of COVID-19 restrictions has on the volume of bulky waste and the impact of changes to how the council charges residents for the uplift of bulky waste items.
