The Councils are unable to guarantee the level of work that will be offered under this call-off arrangement, however, over the last three years 28 days (7.5h per day) of work has been required and it is envisioned a similar, if not higher amount of work will be required moving forward.

The Councils require comprehensive support and advice in respect of the financial aspects of the BDR Waste PFI Contract as a minimum. The successful provider will be required to:
