## About this tender

Staffordshire County Council require a Supplier(s) to provide the treatment, via anaerobic digestion, of separated domestic Food Waste, produced by the residents of Staffordshire, trade Food Waste collected by council operated services, and the marketing and/ or disposal of Outputs and Residues from the treatment process. The Supplier's Facility shall be able to accept domestic Food Waste from April 2026.

Staffordshire County Council is the Customer for lots 1a/b/c through to 8a/b/c, as it is the Waste Disposal Authority (WDA) for the WCAs who form those lots. For lot 9a/b/c only, Stoke on Trent City Council, as a Unitary Authority, will be the Customer and the lot area.

There are 3 delivery scenarios for each of the primary delivery points;

A - Council Direct Delivery of the Food Waste to the proposed Treatment Facility,

B - Council delivery of the food waste to a Supplier provided Waste Transfer Station (where the Supplier will take ownership of the food waste and ensure onward haulage to the proposed Treatment Facility),

C - Council delivery of the food waste to a Council provided Waste Transfer Station, where the supplier will collect the waste from and haul to the proposed Treatment

Facility).

All scenarios are open for all lots. Scenarios should be separately bid for and therefore separately priced, per lot.
