What is being bought

Published requirement description

Zero Waste Scotland provide funding and technical support to Local Authorities to support their alignment with Government policies and strategies. This includes aligning with the Household Recycling Charter and associated Code of Practice. The Scottish Government has also launched a Recycling Improvement Fund and this framework may seek to demonstrate impact of potential bids before funding is approved.

Options Appraisal support to model potential changes in Local Authority waste and recycling provision. The Options Appraisal will seek to maximise operational efficiency and where possible reduce the cost of the service or align with policy requirements.

There is a significant shift in the policy landscape that will impact upon Local Authority collections including Deposit Return Scheme and Extended Producer Responsibility.

There is also a commitment to review the Code of Practice that sits alongside the Charter for Household Recycling to take account of upcoming policy changes.

  • Recurrence: If the contract is funded and required beyond the timeframe of this contract then any information on further notices being published are anticipated to be 6 months prior to the contract end date.

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 10 of 110 points: a 10% discount moves about 1 point. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
  • “Options Appraisal” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 1 suppliers, not a single contract.

Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
