What is being bought

Castle Point Borough Council (CPBC) through the Essex Procurement Partnership (EPP) is looking to renew their recycling waste disposal services contracts. This relates the provision of a waste transfer station (WTS), haulage and Materials Recycling Facility (MRF) services for the borough's dry mixed recycling requirements (excluding glass). The contract duration is 5 years plus an optional extension of up to 5 years in one or multiple increments. Known-unknown risks: 1- Declining or failing end markets Impact: Financial pressure, operational disruption, and performance risks for both the Contractor and the Authority. Why this cannot be addressed upfront: Neither party can accurately forecast long‑term end‑market viability or values, making upfront risk pricing potentially disproportionate and poor value for money. 2- Geopolitical events / Wars / Blockades Impact: Service delays, reduced recycling performance, financial pressure on the Contractor, or value‑for‑money risks for the Authority Why this cannot be addressed upfront: Pricing, service volumes, and operational impacts cannot be accurately or proportionately quantified at contract inception without introducing excessive risk premiums. 3- Extreme weather events Impact: Effects to service continuity, performance standards, and contract affordability. Why this cannot be addressed upfront: It is not possible to price or fully mitigate all operational and financial impacts upfront without introducing disproportionate cost or risk premiums. There is a possibility that the contract may require modification if one of the identified risks above materialise

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 90. The category anchor is Refuse and waste related services (90500000); this is a deliberately broad market comparator. The comparison is shown at several levels rather than pretending one company or region is always the best benchmark.

Comparison setProceduresReported bids per procedureNamed award suppliersPrice evidence

“Reported bids” is an official aggregate, sometimes reported per lot; it is the closest available competition measure. “Named award suppliers” are winners, not all applicants.

Price-outcome signal

Not enough comparable procedures currently publish both a GBP tender value and a usable lowest-valid-bid value to calculate a responsible price-reduction benchmark. Tenderline deliberately does not infer a saving from named award suppliers or from missing award values.

    "description": "Castle Point Borough Council (CPBC) are seeking to engage with the market to receive feedback on various aspects in relation to the Provision of a waste transfer station (WTS), haulage and Materials Recycling Facility (MRF) services for the borough's dry mixed recycling requirements (excluding glass). This is to ensure the opportunity to ensure that they are understood by the market and are fully deliverable. Expressions of Interest are also required.\nFrom Autumn 2026, CPBC will implement a new separate paper and card collection service in disposable sacks. CPBC will also collect  plastics, cans and clingfilm in a disposable sack to  meet compliance with Simpler Recycling and also  provide the best possible  value of the material. The MRF element will require the functionality to separate and recycle the disposable sacks where they will not have an adverse implication of the value of the material collected.\nTwo options are being considered:\n1.\tDelivery by Refuse Collection Vehicle to a MRF, or\n2.\tDelivery by Refuse Collection Vehicle to a WTS, then hauled to a MRF\nFor either option, the location where the CPBC vehicles are to deliver the recycling must be within the boundary of the borough, or within six (6) miles of it.\n•\tCPBC imposes this distance restriction in relation to the tipping location for its Refuse Collection Vehicles to maintain its current resource levels for domestic and trade collections. If CPBC considered extending the current distance restriction, this could impact on its operation, both commercially and environmentally.\n•\tCPBC has a new Waste and Recycling strategy (2025-2029), which has five key principles, one of these being to reduce cost for taxpayers, and another reducing its carbon footprint. To increase the distance restriction would also impact on these deliverables adversely.\nAlthough the PME document focuses on the Castle Point contract, Brentwood Borough Council has a similar requirement for a contract starting at the same time, the same duration and value. This means that one Tender Notice for both opportunities is likely to be published in one procurement with two (2) Lots and two (2) separate contracts.\nWhen ready, a separate PME document in relation to Brentwood will be sent to interested suppliers responding to the Castle Point PME questionnaire.\nFurther information is available within the full PME document located in the e-Delta tendering portal via access code 2C6KJ8PN4Z.",
