378B_21 Hazardous Waste Collection and Disposal Services

Tender description

An ESPO national framework for the provision of hazardous waste collection and disposal services. This framework will supplement ESPOs 378_20 Hazardous and Specialist Waste Services framework. An eAuction process may be used to award subsequent call-off contracts following the reopening of competition among the parties to the framework agreement. ESPO has established a commercial trading company, ESPO Trading Ltd, whose target clients are third sector organisations such as national and local charities, public sector mutual organisations and other organisations involved in the delivery of services to or for the public sector. The successful supplier may be asked to enter into an additional separate framework agreement (the Second Framework) with ESPO Trading Ltd on materially similar terms to that found in the tender pack to be entered into by ESPO itself. Any second framework agreement will be a purely commercial agreement and will, for the avoidance of doubt, not be governed by the Public Contract Regulations 2015 or other public procurement legislation. ESPO Trading Ltd may enter into the second framework agreement with the successful supplier and make it available to third sector clients who themselves are not required to follow the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 or other public procurement legislation. Accordingly, this is provided for bidders' information only. Lot 1: The provision for the collection and disposal of a range of hazardous wastes including, but not limited to: acids, alkaline batteries, battery acid, cleaning chemicals, laboratory chemicals, fluorescent tubes, aerosols, duplicator fluids, flammable solids and liquids, oils, WEEE, toxics, toxic solids and water-based waste.
