Green Goals – Waste

With the Introduction of the Environment Act 2021, waste procurements are now having to shape commissioning requirements to account for the current objectives for local authorities as well as allowing flexibility for the known and unknown environmentally driven changes that will be brought in in the coming years.

Procuring for Waste collection and disposal will have to give greater importance into how to build in contract flexibility as well as all the existing challenges for our clients in developing a robust and bespoke waste solution to meet the local authority’s needs.

We are leading our clients on methods to not only account for the Environment Act obligations, but also, depending on our clients’ objectives, ensuring that additional options are discussed to enhance the contract and account for environmental objectives required as part of the contract delivery.

For more information, please get in touch with us.
