II.2.4) Description of the procurement
PfH wishes to establish a multi supplier framework agreement for waste management services across the United Kingdom, for its member base.
The waste management framework will require operators to be capable of delivering a fully managed service (either using sub-contracted supply chain or their own fleet/assets) across the UK. Service requirements will include but not limited to; waste collection services, account management, compliance management, management of sub-contracted parties – where applicable (including waste transfer stations) and provision of management information.
The framework will offer the member access to a managed licensed operator network which can undertake waste management collection and delivery services for construction related works. Waste materials will include but not be limited to, construction and demolition (C&D), general mixed and hazardous waste. The framework customer will primarily be housing associations and or council direct labour organisations (DLO) and / or social and private sector contractors undertaking works including but not limited to refurbishment, new build and major infrastructure works. Service models will primarily be of an ad hoc nature opposed to scheduled provisions.
The framework is likely to be divided into lots which will be finalised following market engagement. Details of the lots will be set out in the Contract Notice.
PfH wish to engage with the market to support the development of the framework strategy. This will be carried out through one to one telephone / video call discussions. For more information, please contact Judy Ashcroft – Jashcroft@pfh.co.uk. PfH are particularly interested in engaging with suppliers who operate within the responsive waste market, due to the turnaround SLA requirement of the sector.
