Description
Auto-translated from noBackground
The tender competition applies to the following municipalities:
Harstad municipality
Kvæfjord municipality
Tjeldsund municipality
Lødingen municipality
The municipalities will enter into a new agreement for the collection and treatment of commercial waste.
The municipalities have several locations with different types of businesses and waste streams. This requires a solution that provides better control, more uniform practices, and simpler operations across addresses and units. There is also a need for safe, systematic handling of hazardous waste and other waste fractions that require special follow-up.
The purpose of the procurement is to establish a comprehensive and operationally efficient solution for the collection, transport, and treatment of commercial waste. The solution shall contribute to better regulatory compliance, higher sorting rates, more predictable logistics, and better documentation of waste management in the municipality.
Description of the assignment
The assignment includes the collection, transport, and treatment of commercial waste from multiple locations and various addresses in the municipalities. The procurement shall cover the municipalities' ongoing need for waste management through a consolidated and uniform service.
The delivery shall include the handling of mixed commercial waste and relevant waste fractions, including food waste, glass and metal, cardboard, plastic, residual waste, hazardous waste, WEEE, confidential waste, and infectious waste. The assignment also includes the necessary handling and follow-up of fractions requiring special documentation and traceability.
A flexible collection system is requested that accommodates both planned collections and the need for extra collections and urgent orders. The solution shall support predictable logistics and uniform practices across the municipality's locations.
The supplier shall also provide relevant follow-up and overall documentation related to the execution of the assignment. This includes, among other things, digital traceability and deviation reporting per location, as well as environmental documentation and statistics broken down by fractions.
