## About this tender

ELWA is responsible for the disposal of municipal waste collected by the London Boroughs of Barking and Dagenham, Havering, Newham and Redbridge (the Constituent Councils). ELWA is also responsible for the disposal of commercial waste collected by the Constituent Councils.

The current Integrated Waste Management Services (IWMS) Contract, which was signed in December 2002 with ELWA Ltd (the IWMS Contractor) and is operated by Renewi (the IWMS Operator), includes infrastructure for mechanical biological treatment, waste transfer, and Reuse and Recycling Centres (RRCs) for use by the general public. The IWMS Operator also has a number of sub-contractors for services, including the provision of material recovery facilities for mixed recycling, offtake of materials, transfer and RRC facilities. The IWMS Contract expires in December 2027. Further details on ELWA and the services it provides can be found at [eastlondonwaste.gov.uk](https://eastlondonwaste.gov.uk/).

A new Joint Strategy for East London's Resources and Waste for the period from 2027 to 2057 has been developed by ELWA and the Constituent Councils, which has been ratified by all five authorities in February 2022. The Joint Strategy sets out a direction of travel for the future management of waste after the expiry of the IWMS Contract that includes: ambition to increase recycling levels; accessing more affordable solutions to managing the waste streams; and, working to reduce emissions; all of which are identified as key priorities. Further details on the joint strategy can be found at [eastlondonwaste.gov.uk/jointstrategy](https://eastlondonwaste.gov.uk/jointstrategy/).

ELWA is currently developing its Outline Business Case and procurement strategy to deliver new arrangements for waste treatment and disposal in time for expiry of the IWMS Contract (the "Requirement").

To inform the development of the Outline Business Case and procurement strategy, ELWA is engaging with the market to better understand the market's interest in providing waste treatment and disposal services to ELWA and the infrastructure and capacity which will be available to meet the Requirement. Consequently, ELWA invites you to respond to some or all of the questions set out in the Market Operator Briefing Note\], depending on which areas are more pertinent to your business.

The Market Operator Briefing Note is available from the BRAVO system.

All responses to the questions will be taken into account in the development of ELWA's Outline Business Case and procurement strategy.
