Residual Waste Disposal for Bournemouth and Christchurch

On 1 April 2019 Bournemouth Borough Council (BBC), Christchurch Borough Council (CBC) and Borough of Poole (BoP) were replaced by a new council named Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Council (BCP Council). Prior to 1 April 2019 Bournemouth and Poole were operating as separate unitary authorities. Prior to 1 April 2019 Christchurch waste services were part of an organisation led by Dorset County Council, known as Dorset Waste Partnership (DWP). From 1 April 2019 to 31 March 2020 Christchurch waste services were operated by Dorset Council. Responsibility for Christchurch waste services transferred to BCP Council on 1 April 2020. There is a long-term contract with a third party which runs until 2027 for the collection and disposal of residual waste from Poole. Residual waste collected from Poole is directly delivered by refuse collection vehicles to the Nuffield Transfer Station, Poole. There is no further capacity for residual waste from Bournemouth and or Christchurch to be managed at this site. Residual waste collected from Bournemouth and Christchurch is directly delivered by refuse collection vehicles to the third-party treatment / disposal facilities as the Council currently has no transfer station capacity in these areas. This contract is for the treatment/ disposal of the residual waste streams collected from Bournemouth and Christchurch, that is domestic kerbside refuse, litterbins and commercial waste collections. The procurement will be separated into two Lots. These are Lot 1 – Bournemouth Residual Waste and Lot 2 – Christchurch Residual Waste. Bidders can bid for Lot 1 – Bournemouth Residual Waste or Lot 2 – Christchurch Residual Waste or bid for both Lots. Each lot will be evaluated individually. If a Bidder is successful on winning both Lots they will have their price per tonnage for Lot 1 – Bournemouth Residual Waste and for Lot 2 – Christchurch Residual Waste averaged out (via a weighting as per the overall expected tonnage for each Lot) to provide a total tonnage price for both Lots. This is as outlined in the procurement documentation. The Contractor shall manage all waste in accordance with the waste hierarchy and principals of the circular economy. The Contractor shall endeavour to provide the services in a manner that will have a positive effect on BCP Council’s declared climate and ecological emergency which committed the Council to be carbon neutral by 2030 and Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole area by 2050. The contractor must have a Delivery Point located in one of more of the following postcode areas; BH1, BH2, BH3, BH4, BH5, BH6, BH7, BH8, BH9, BH10, BH11, BH12, BH13, BH14, BH15, BH16, BH17, BH18, BH21, BH22, BH23, BH24 and BH31. The Delivery Point must be operating for the minimum hours that are outlined within the procurement documentation. The contractor will be required to have a Weighbridge at the Delivery Point.
