Published award criteria (2)
- Quality
- Price
Lot distribution rule: Payment will be based on a gate fee (£/tonne), which must cover all costs associated with the receipt, handling, treatment, and processing of green waste.
Contractors must submit a price for each Lot they wish to be considered for, as per table 1 in the Services Specification.
Each Lot will be evaluated independently, and a Contractor may be awarded one or more Lots.
Contractors may also provide a price per tonne (£/t) for exclusive tonnage (Lot 5).
Each Lot will be evaluated separately with each Lot scoring up to 90% each.
What this means for your bid
- Price carries 90 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 9 points. This one is won on the number: sharpen the price before polishing the prose.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.

Invoicing and Payment
-The successful Contractor shall submit monthly itemised invoices, supported by weighbridge data.
-Payment will normally be made within 30 days of receipt of a valid invoice.
Review and risk notes
- Risks
The Council estimates an annual composting requirement of approximately 8,000 tonnes of green waste. Actual arisings will vary seasonally and may fall below or exceed this figure in any given year, which presents a potential risk to contract performance. The Contractor must ensure sufficient processing capacity is available throughout the year, with particular focus on meeting increased demand during peak summer months.
