Framework
An agreement that sets terms for work the buyer may order later, often from several suppliers. The value shown usually covers the whole agreement, not one job.

Clarification questions
A deadline for asking the buyer questions about the tender. It is earlier than the closing date.
Conditions of participation
What the buyer asks suppliers to show before they can be considered, such as experience, insurance or accreditations.
Bids are scored on

The buyer names an official statistical area for where the work is, not a street address. Check the tender documents for the actual sites.

Description

Salisbury City Council (SCC) intends to establish a new Commercial Waste Collection, Disposal and Recycling Services contract covering the collection, transportation, processing, reuse/recycling and lawful disposal of commercial and municipal waste generated at Council-managed locations in Salisbury. It forms the principal operational standard and contract deliverable. The new contract will consolidate several existing short-term arrangements currently delivered by external providers into a single, integrated service. This will enable greater service consistency, operational efficiency, value for money, and compliance with all relevant environmental legislation. The contract will play a key role in maintaining Salisbury’s public spaces as clean, safe, and welcoming environments, supporting the Council’s long-term sustainability and environmental objectives. SCC is committed to maintaining high standards of cleanliness and environmental performance. The new contract will cover the management of green waste from parks and open spaces, spoil tip waste from cemeteries, litter and refuse from street bins (including sweeper waste), and waste from council buildings and operational sites. Waste Stream Data (2024–2025) The following figures represent the baseline tonnage data for the 2024–2025 reporting period and will be used to inform the new contract: Waste Stream Tonnes General Waste (DNH) 240.69 Dry Mixed Recycling 7.00 Glass 0.30 Mixed Recyclables 15.49 Mixed Commercial Waste 7.20 Municipal Waste 31.86 Biodegradable Waste 10.22 Wood 1.12 Total Waste Managed All Streams 313.88 (These figures form the baseline for ongoing reporting, performance comparison, and service improvement targets.)
