Purpose

Brief
Description

- 
The existing contractual arrangements for key waste
streams collected at the Council’s Household Waste Recycling
Sites are expiring and need replacing.
- 
A DPS would offer the Council increased flexibility
compared to a traditional framework and the Council has an
increased need to be agile as changes in the waste industry are
having direct impacts on waste management collection
services.
- 
The first further competition exercise under the DPS
is for a duration of 4 years and the evaluation of these contracts
incorporates service specific criteria.
