01What is being requested
The assignment concerns the processing and transport of approximately 22,500 tonnes of GFE+t (Vegetables, Fruit, Food Waste + small garden waste) per year. The agreement has an initial term of four (4) years with the possibility of three extensions of one year each, for a maximum duration of seven (7) years.
Due to the expiry of the current transport and processing contract, the municipalities in the Regio Gooi en Vechtstreek have decided on this new tender. In total, the GFE+t amounts to approximately 22,500 tonnes per year.
02Strategic insight
Focus on offering the lowest award rate per tonne, as the award is not based on EMVI. Use the guaranteed digestion percentage (minimum 27%) as a means to demonstrate differentiation in the price quotation. Ensure full compliance with the certification requirements (ISO and VCA) and the mandatory attachments to prevent exclusion.
