two.2.4) Description of the procurement
Swindon Borough Council manages waste collections on behalf of the residents of Swindon and plans to change its recycling collections model change from the current model - whereby the four main recycling streams are collected separately by multiple vehicles - to a full kerbside sorting system with all streams collected by one vehicle. The new model will include additional streams such as food waste and coffee pods, however it will mix cans and plastics which will require separation prior to processing.
The Council requires the supply and installation of a new multi-stream baling line to support this change, with the new baling line enabling the Council to bale paper/card, and separate cans (steel and aluminium) from plastics (all types) then bale each stream through a single line.
The new baling line will replace the existing metal baler, which the Supplier will be required to decommission prior to the new baling line being installed. Due to future changes expected at Waterside Park, the supplied equipment must be modular and able to be relocated in the future if needed.
The successful supplier will:
- design and supply the new baling line,
- decommission the existing baler, and carry out all remedial/ preparatory works required for installation of the new equipment at the Council's Waterside Park Operation Depot, located at Cheney Manor Industrial Estate, Swindon,
- deliver, install and commission the new equipment in line with the required performance envelopes, and provide user training,
- provide a five-year fully inclusive warranty, including planned and reactive maintenance,
- provide reactive/ responsive call-out and repair service with same-day and next-day provision.

Section four. Procedure
four.1) Description
four.1.1) Type of procedure
Open procedure
Accelerated procedure
Justification:
This is a replacement Invitation to Tender for the previously abandoned procurement exercise for this equipment (reference DN669563). Having conducted market engagement through the publication of a PIN in April 2023 (which included sharing an early draft of the proposed Specification and Procurement procedure) and having openly advertised the previous Invitation to Tender, any party interested in this procurement is expected to have already expressed interest and viewed the previous tender documents, the amendments to which are minor. A shorter the tender period will reduce the lead time until delivery and installation, minimising costs to the Council through interim arrangements.
