We can confirm that this was published to contracts finder so suppliers within this industry would have had visibility.\nBiogen were the only supplier that were able to meet our requirements, however their bid was above threshold rendering the tender invalid.\nThe Council have approached the market to understand why other suppliers were unable to bid and we now understand that Biogen are the only supplier that can fulfil our particular needs for our area.\nThere is a real pressure now on all councils to secure treatment capacity to meet the government deadlines to roll out these, now mandatory, food collection schemes ahead of the March 2026 deadline. To retender this as an above threshold tender would put the Council at risk of not securing this service and we do not believe we would receive any further bids in any case.",
