Hampshire County Council, Portsmouth City Council and Southampton City Council are considering the future delivery of municipal resource management services across the region.
The planned Municipal Resource Management Services 2031–2040 project was originally identified as a procurement valued at around £1 billion, covering a minimum ten-year period from 1 January 2031 to 31 December 2040, with potential extensions.
The programme is expected to support the prevention, reuse, recycling, treatment, energy recovery and final disposal of municipal waste, following the waste hierarchy and enabling the authorities to manage a substantial regional waste stream.
Potential requirements include waste reception and transfer, sorting, material recovery, recycling processing, composting and organic waste treatment, residual waste treatment, energy recovery, onward transportation, management of recovered materials, and the operation, maintenance or improvement of associated infrastructure.
If your organisation delivers municipal waste, recycling, resource recovery, infrastructure operation or associated environmental services, now is the time to assess your readiness and future positioning.
Why this opportunity matters
1) Scale: The project concerns services and infrastructure supporting approximately 750,000 households and more than 800,000 tonnes of waste each year.
2) Long-term potential: The original pipeline described a ten-year requirement, with possible extensions and an estimated value of around £1 billion.
3) Broad scope: The requirement may span prevention, reuse, recycling, treatment, energy recovery, disposal, transport and facility operations.
4) Future-focused delivery: Suppliers may need to respond to population growth, separate collection requirements, changing legislation, carbon reduction, ageing infrastructure and evolving markets for recovered materials.
Potential service and infrastructure scope:
- Waste prevention, reuse and recycling services
- Waste reception, transfer, sorting and material recovery
- Recycling processing, composting and organic waste treatment
- Residual waste treatment, energy recovery and final disposal
- Operation, maintenance and potential improvement of waste infrastructure
- Management of recovered materials and onward transportation
Areas to consider when preparing:
- Relevant experience in municipal waste, recycling, treatment, resource recovery or infrastructure operations
- Capacity to deliver resilient, adaptable services across a large regional footprint
- Strong environmental, carbon-reduction and circular-economy credentials
- Robust operational, commercial and financial risk management
- Ability to respond to evolving legislation, technology, waste composition and recycling requirements
