Coverage: 206 active published awards; 198 bid reports (which may be per lot). Supplier values exclude multi-supplier awards, frameworks and DPS, and use GBP only. They are published award values, not payments. Published-to-award variance compares single-lot, single-award, single-supplier GBP procedures with explicitly non-framework/non-DPS status; increases remain in the average. Unpublished data stays unknown. Awarded suppliers are winners, not all bidders.

What is being bought
The council has a responsibility to ensure that all confidential waste is managed and disposed of appropriately, in line with its Retention Schedules and Records Management Plan, to maintain compliance with data protection and regulatory requirements, including the Public Records (Scotland) Act 2011, UK GDPR, and the Data Protection Act 2018. To support this obligation, the Council has historically maintained contractual arrangements to facilitate the secure disposal of confidential waste across the organisation. This requirement also aligns with wider industry expectations and recognised standards, including relevant ISO certifications, established security protocols, and best practice in records management. The materials disposed of through these processes may include personal data as well as commercially sensitive information, all of which require robust safeguards throughout the disposal lifecycle.
