HCC is looking for an experienced and proactive contractor partner, with a proven track record of delivering high-quality landfill construction projects. A key commitment of the Council is to promote effective decarbonise across its projects. To deliver this, we are looking to partner with our capital works contractor to lower emissions associated with the landfill construction works, particularly through the use of hybrid and electric plant. Operating as a local authority, it is essential we are optimising public value from our contracts, while upholding high health and safety standards.

Optimising public value means more than simply lowest cost, we are interested in a high quality of service and delivering on Council priorities including timely delivery to support the landfill operation as well as decarbonisation. The broader outcomes that HCC is seeking include reducing greenhouse gas emissions, meeting construction programming to allow continued landfill operation, and enhancing community benefits. These outcomes will be embedded into the partnership, requiring our contractor to deliver on all of these priorities.

We intend to go to market at the end of May 2024. The opportunity will be advertised on the Government Electronic Tenders Service (GETS).
