Tender description

Staffordshire County Council require a Supplier(s) to provide the treatment, via anaerobic digestion, of separated domestic Food Waste, produced by the residents of Staffordshire, trade Food Waste collected by council operated services, and the marketing and/ or disposal of Outputs and Residues from the treatment process. The Supplier's Facility shall be able to accept domestic Food Waste from April 2026. Staffordshire County Council is the Customer for lots 1a/b/c through to 8a/b/c, as it is the Waste Disposal Authority (WDA) for the WCAs who form those lots. For lot 9a/b/c only, Stoke on Trent City Council, as a Unitary Authority, will be the Customer and the lot area. There are 3 delivery scenarios for each of the primary delivery points; A - Council Direct Delivery of the Food Waste to the proposed Treatment Facility, B - Council delivery of the food waste to a Supplier provided Waste Transfer Station (where the Supplier will take ownership of the food waste and ensure onward haulage to the proposed Treatment Facility), C - Council delivery of the food waste to a Council provided Waste Transfer Station, where the supplier will collect the waste from and haul to the proposed Treatment Facility). All scenarios are open for all lots. Scenarios should be separately bid for and therefore separately priced, per lot.

About the buyer

Staffordshire County Council buys as a local authority, with a Commercial Team managing procurement on its behalf. Suppliers register on Proactis, the council's electronic tendering system, to view opportunities and submit bids. Larger opportunities are also advertised on Find a Tender, the government's procurement portal. Contracts below the advertised threshold are handled directly by individual council directorates rather than the Commercial Team. Existing framework agreements, dynamic purchasing systems and collaborative partner arrangements are used ahead of new competitions where possible. Contract award notices and procurement reports are published for transparency.

UK local government drives £140bn in annual procurement, led by social protection (£66.6bn) and education (£57.1bn).

Over the past 5 years, most of Staffordshire County Council's contract awards have been in business services, waste, cleaning and environmental services and construction work.
