Text description of figure
This flowchart outlines the process for developing contracts.
1. Collections system options, transport options, recovery options and disposal options need to be identified and agreed.
2. These options then feed into the service provision.
3. The scope of services for the contract this then established.
4. The next step is to consider the contract. This includes considering the following:
- financial requirements (capital expenditure, operational expenditure, revenue and cost fluctuations)
- contract management requirements (KPI’s, reporting)
- other requirements (contract term, health and safety and educational and communication).
5. This allows the specific conditions of the contract to be set.
6. The specific contract conditions combined with the general contract conditions establish the contract considerations.
7. The scope of services combined with the contract considerations and any other supporting information forms the contract documentation.
