Notice of proposed decision first published: 11/12/2024

This decision will be taken under urgency procedures.

Reason for urgency:
A procurement exercise has been undertaken across Lincolnshire for the supply of street caddies and kitchen caddies, ahead of the mandatory food waste collections required for all residents in 2026. The lowest tender has been reviewed by SELCP’s PSPS procurement team, and they have confirmed that they are unable to find a lower cost alternative. The supplier has guaranteed the price for the caddies until the end of December 2024 and requires all Lincolnshire collection authorities to place an order to ensure efficiencies of scale. Due to the Christmas period, purchase orders for the caddies need to be placed by the 20th December
