UK Public Sector Contracts & Tenders

The council requires the provision of a subsidised home food waste treatment product which can be purchased by residents within the Wiltshire Council area. The product supplied must be: • Able to treat the food waste output of an average UK household. • Compliant with necessary consents. • Safe, robust, easy to install or move, easy to use and are suitable for use by the demographic of Wiltshire in their home or garden and should not be excessively sized. • It would also be advantageous if the product could treat garden waste in addition to food waste.

The procurement will be focused on the outcome required, to treat food waste from home, and the market will offer potential products. In addition, we would require a supplier to administer the ordering and distribution of the product to residents within the Wiltshire Council area. The provider would then invoice, with the appropriate evidence of sales, the council for the difference between the subsidy paid and the agreed unit price each month. This ensures that the council does not hold pre-purchased stock. The contractor will be required to demonstrate flexibility, choice of products, ease of use, a help service, and compliance with regulations for home treatment of food waste. As well as providing sales information with the Council, the supplier should provide full postal address for each sale so that trends can be analysed and surveying the customers can be undertaken if required.

Wiltshire Council - Administering Authority for Wiltshire Pension Fund is seeking to procure a provider for Mortality Screening, tracing and overseas life existence services. A mortality screening process is a method of comparing a Pension Fund's pensioner and deferred membership data with various death registers in the UK to highlight all death cases of members to ensure that benefits are paid out in a timely manner and that records are kept up to date. At points in a member's pension life cycle we may lose track of current addresses and use tracing services to locate and re-connect, also used to supply next of kin and death details to ensure benefits are paid out correctly. Overseas Life Existence checks are completed as international death registers are not open to mortality screening so a method of ensuring benefits are still due to the overseas pensioners is required.
