SERVICES & ORGANISATION COMMITTEE MEETING AGENDA 11 JUNE 2019
No company provided evidence of being based in the Noosa Shire.
In the overall price and non-price evaluation, Sims Group Australian Holdings Limited
demonstrated the best value for money, and therefore is recommended as the tenderer
considered the most advantageous to Council for 1819T090 Collection and Purchase of Scrap
Metal and Lead Acid Batteries.
Tenders were assessed in accordance with the tender Probity Plan by three (3) members of the
Waste Management Branch and a Workplace Health and Safety Advisor.
Finance
Approximately 2,500 tonnes of recycled metals are collected and sold annually by Council. The
sale of metals and lead acid batteries provides Council with a significant revenue stream. The
revenue is difficult to accurately predict as it is dependent on the amount of material generated
by the community and fluctuating commodity price of the metals. An approximate value to Noosa
Council over the initial three-year term of the contract is $1,500,000.
The metal price evaluation for tenders was calculated using the preceding month’s average “TEX
Report” (weekly mid-point), divided by the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) preceding month’s
daily indicative AUD/USD exchange rate, multiplied by the contractor’s offered percentage.
The lead acid batteries price evaluation for tenders was calculated using the previous month’s
average London Metal Exchange (LME) “Lead” Cash Sellers Price, divided by the Reserve Bank
of Australia (RBA) preceding month average daily indicative AUD/USD exchange rate, multiplied
by the contractors offered percentage
Risks & Opportunities
Some revenue opportunity and risk will always be associated with metal and battery recyclable
sales due to fluctuations in world commodity market prices, as these prices rise and fall
periodically due to market demand.
