Background:
This report requested the Cabinet’s agreement to approve an extension of the Council’s Recycling Resource Management Contract.
The report explained that the service had originally been procured through an ‘Open Process’ and had received minimal interest. Cabinet approval had been granted on 7 June 2023 (decision number 82/2022 refers) to award the contract to Veolia Environmental services for a period of two-years from 1 October 2022 to 30 September 2024 with the option to extend for a further two-years until 30 September 2026. The two-year extension term had been built into the contract to give both Medway Council and its contractor flexibility in the changing legislative scene for waste services.
An exempt Appendix to the report set out financial analysis in relation to the procurement.
