Environmental Enforcement - London Borough of Sutton

London Borough of Sutton is seeking a suitably experienced Enforcement Service provider. The provider will need expertise in the delivery of an end to end enforcement service for the investigation, issuing and processing of Fixed Penalty Notices (FPNs) for environmental offences. This contract will be focused on the public highways throughout the borough. The day to day focus of the service will be exclusively on fly-tipping enforcement, with a set number of dedicated blitz days per year concentrating on littering, commercial waste duty of care, dog-fouling and bins on highway offences.

The contract will run for a period of up to three years, on a one year + one year + one year basis. A review of the contract, including achievements and learnings, will be undertaken and presented to the Council by the provider at least three months before the end of each one year contract period, where a decision on extension will either be agreed by the Council or not. The successful provider will have the opportunity in advance of both years 2 and 3 to present a business case for any additional changes to the scope of the contract, including the type and extent of FPNs issued, as well as officer numbers.

In view of the above, London Borough of Sutton is seeking a provider with expertise to provide an effective cost-neutral enforcement approach for the borough to tackle known fly tipping, littering, dog-fouling and bins on highway hot-spots, where sustained communication, engagement and campaigning has already happened.
