- 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.
- Open for bids / closing date
- You must submit by the closing date and time, normally through the buyer's own online portal. Late bids are normally refused.
- 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
- How the buyer will compare bids, usually a split between price and quality. A 60/40 split in favour of quality means the cheapest bid will not necessarily win.
- Lots
- A tender can be split into parts. You can often bid for only the lots that suit you.
- Area (ITL)
- The buyer names an official statistical area for where the work is, not a street address. Check the tender documents for the actual sites.
- UK4 and other notice codes
- Official codes for the type of notice. A "tender notice" means bids are being invited.

Description
London Universities Purchasing Consortium (LUPC), working with participating UK University Purchasing Consortia, is undertaking preliminary market engagement to inform the development and procurement of a new Waste Management Services Framework Agreement (EFM5095 LU). The future Framework is anticipated to cover a range of waste management and related services, including Total Waste Management; General & Recycling Waste Services; Hazardous, Chemical & Radioactive Waste; Clinical & Pharmaceutical Waste; Confidential Waste; and IT Asset Disposal / Reuse, Recycling & Disposal. As part of the new Framework, LUPC intends to incorporate IT Asset Disposal services currently provided through a separate IT Equipment Reuse, Recycling & Disposal Framework Agreement. The final scope, structure and number of Lots have not yet been determined. LUPC is therefore seeking feedback from suppliers and other interested market participants to help inform the procurement strategy, scope, structure, service requirements, pricing and commercial approach for the future Framework. A Supplier Engagement Questionnaire has been made available via Microsoft Forms, with a link provided in the Engagement Description section of this notice. Suppliers and other interested organisations are encouraged to participate and provide feedback on the proposed approach.
