Local Authority waste services and contracts procurement – A new guide and toolkit

• Most authorities have been reviewing their current delivery models to ensure performance improves, customer satisfaction is retained or improved while their annual spend is reduced in times of continued austerity. Local authorities look to the market for innovation and cost savings in order to deliver front-line services, but getting this right requires an appreciation of the market and what it is able to deliver, as well as a full appreciation of the existing services and budgets.

  Our guide demonstrates how to plan for a successful procurement process, when to engage with internal and external stakeholders, how many options/variants to ask bidders to bid back against, and how to design and time your procurement to ensure it stimulates the market which will ultimately drive innovation and deliver better value for money.
