1. Background
Tender specifications for the pick-up and proper disposal of waste and recycling
from the municipally owned and operated facilities were prepared by the various
departments and provided to the Purchasing Services Division.
2. Tender CL2020-16 was prepared and issued by the Purchasing Services Division
and advertised electronically on the Municipality's website. Notification of the

2. Analysis
5. Twelve companies downloaded the tender document and four submissions were
received in response to the tender call. Three bidders priced all the items
contained within the tender document. One company priced only two of the nine
items. The tender notes that the Municipality intends to award the contract to one
bidder, however, the Municipality reserves the right to award the Tender in part or
in whole or to split Items specified between one or more bidder.
6. The eight companies who chose not to submit pricing were contacted to ask why
they decided not to bid. The responses are as follows:
One company was an association for distributing the tender document to its
members;
One company was a supplier for the containers; and
Six company did not respond to our request for information
7. The bids were reviewed and tabulated by the Purchasing Services Division (see
Attachment 1).
8. The bid results were forwarded to the Operations Services Department,
Community Services Department and Emergency and Fire Services Department
for their review and consideration.
9. After review, analysis and discussions the departments mutually agreed that the
low bidder bidding all items, GFL Environmental Inc., be recommended for the
award of contract CL2020-16.
10. GFL Environmental Inc. has successfully provided similar services to the
Municipality of Clarington in the past therefore no reference checks were
