ESPH AB Street Cleansing Surveys (ESPH294) - AWARD

Tender description

Rother District Council - Joint Waste Partnership (JWP) are seeking Contractors to provide a Street Cleansing Monitoring Service. The Joint Waste Partnership comprises the Waste Collection Authorities of Hastings Borough Council, Rother District Council and Wealden District Council. In January 2019 JWP awarded a contract for the provision of waste collection in Hastings, Rother and Wealden along with the street cleansing services Rother and Wealden to Biffa Municipal Ltd. Hastings Borough Council has taken street and beach cleansing services back in-house operating their own Direct Service Operation. The National Indicator (NI) 195 methodology was used as a way for local authorities to measure the local environmental quality of their streets in a structured way. It also provided local authorities with important performance management information which allowed them to drive up service delivery by focusing resources on poorly performing areas of their service. The objective of the work is to provide JWP with an accurate, independent view of the standards of street cleansing by adopting NI 195 survey in each of the three partner council areas. It is anticipated that the successful contractor would be required to start surveying in August 2019.
