Each mini competition within the DPS will be specific each site’s specific needs. It is anticipated that requirements will include liming plant equipment, lime, permits (subject to site and lot) and resource to deliver the limed sludge treatment services.
The contract is being tendered in 2 separate Lots:
Lot 1: On-site lime treatment
Lot 2: Off-site lime treatment
The utiolity is looking to appoint a number od suppliers to the Dynamic Purchasing System, which will run for a term of 8 years.
