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

Dacorum Borough Council (DBC) wants to establish a Contract for the provision of Waste Transfer Services (the Goods and Services). The contract will be for a period of 3 years with an option to extend for one further year period (i.e. 3 + 1). The expected annual budget £80,000. The Contractor will be responsible for transfer of fly tipping waste and the transfer and disposal of commercial waste and other waste materials. The deadline for receipt of tenders is midday on Thursday 5th November. Tenders received after this date and time will be rejected. The Council previously undertook a below threshold tender which was abandoned. This failed tender exercise has been used to inform this procurement.
