The purpose of this new framework agreement (“this Framework Agreement”) is to ensure we can provide a waste management solution for Members of PfH in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland and other public bodies permitted to use this Framework Agreement who require the provision of Services.

This framework agreement required tenderers to be capable of providing total waste management and technical and compliance support services. The supplier is required to provide a fully auditable total waste management provision across all waste streams within housing, construction, education, defence, and highways, including, hazardous and non-hazardous waste streams. Service providers were required to be able to supply and end-to-end solution and are responsible for ensuring the producer has access to all compliance documentation and waste reporting to ensure a fully auditable service provision.

The Framework Agreement is structured into a single lot – Total Waste Management and Technical Services.

Tenderers are required to provide services including but not limited to:

a) Total Waste Management, including but not limited to;

b) All waste streams across housing, construction, education, defence, and highways industries; and

c) Reactive (ad hoc), planned (routine/scheduled), fixed site services (depot or new build), direct tipping facilities, kerbside/wait and load services and site clearance and collection services, such as fly tipping removal services, bulky collections and POP's

d) Management Information, waste reporting and compliance documentation in line with each waste stream and EA guidelines

e) Technical and compliance services, pertaining to service improvements (environmental, economic, operational and compliance).

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 40 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 4 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
  • “Total Waste Management & Technical Services” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 170 suppliers, not a single contract.

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