What is being bought

Published requirement description

The provision of services to haul, treat and dispose of local authority collected

residual waste.

Swindon Borough Council is required to treat and dispose of around 55,000 tonnes of its

own non-recyclable residual waste collected from the kerbside, and from its single

household waste recycling centre.

Tenders were sought for 10,000 tonne per annum lots, between 10,000

and the full 60,000 tonnes. The volume of the contracted waste will be variable over the

term of the contract, with a guarantee of 70% of the full tonnage tendered for being given.

The contract term is for 8 years with no breaks or extensions being included.

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 80 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 8 points. This one is won on the number: sharpen the price before polishing the prose.

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