    Brief

The contract covers the Oban and Lorn area (including inner islands), Mid Argyll, Kintyre, Bute, and Cowal. Services include operation of mechanical biological treatment facilities (converting to waste transfer stations), waste transfer stations, recycling centres, recycling deposit points, and landfill site management. This is a short-term procurement to maintain service continuity while the Council evaluates long-term service delivery options. Detailed service specifications are provided in Schedule Part 4 and supporting appendices (1-5). Potential bidders should have experience managing complex waste infrastructure and multi-site operations across geographically dispersed locations.
