Description

The Kent County Council (KCC) wishes to engage with suppliers regarding capacity in the market to provide processing services for Paper and Card.

KCC would like to take the opportunity to invite suitably qualified waste management organisations to express an interest in this requirement.

KCC's future demand for these services is as follows:
(a) 4,214 tonnes from 1 November 2020 (Mid and East Kent HWRCs);
(b) 15,443 tonnes from 1 January 2021 (East Kent kerbside collections);
(c) 11,816 to 14,403 tonnes from 1 December 2021 (West Kent HWRCs and South West Kent kerbside collections).

KCC will consider different ways of lotting this requirement; for example: the possible segregation of Paper and Card across all Kent HWRC sites (currently mixed), splitting HWRC waste from kerbside collected waste, etc.

If your organisation is interested in processing any of KCC's paper/card waste and has the capacity to take some of this material in the future, please express an interest.

KCC will contact suppliers that express an interest in this opportunity to understand their organisations capability and capacity to meet the requirements of this service.

The Supplier's processing facility must be fully permitted and organisations must already be practiced in delivering the highest standards of Health and Safety and Environmental compliance to deliver highly organised and efficient waste processing services; using expertise and innovation to ensure best value for money for KCC.
