| The Service Development Timeline (SDT) has been created to
assist Councils with the development of new waste management collection
contracts for domestic recycling, organics and garbage.
SDT Summary
The timeline consists of five Phases, from Consultation & Planning
to Monitoring & Review, each with a number of Key Considerations.
The Key Considerations include a Deliverable which needs to be completed,
and where relevant additional information is provided in Information
& Links, Tips and Costs sections. It is important to note that
while the Phases should be undertaken sequentially, many of the Key
Considerations should be undertaken either concurrently or in overlapping
periods.
The SDT is available in an excel spreadsheet format, and as an interactive
online program in which you can record your progress over time and
add your own comments and information.
Waste Management Collection Contracts
The Service Development Timeline is designed to deal with collection
contracts that are on a seven to ten year cycle as distinct from processing
contracts (such as Material Recovery Facilities or Composting facilities),
which require a separate process. The model is based on an open tendering
process, rather than an Expression of Interest/Selective Tendering
process, as described in the NSW Local Government (Tendering) Regulation
1999.
For further details, view About SDT.
How To Begin
The SDT is available for use by all NSW Local Councils. Councils from
other states in Australia are welcome to use the timeline but must
note that legal variations in other states are not considered in the
SDT.
You will need to Register
to begin using the SDT Program. Once registered, you have a choice
to use the Interactive Online Program or you may download the Microsoft
Excel spreadsheet version for offline reference. Registering is quick
and easy, and any details supplied will be used for SDT purposes only
– see the Privacy Policy for
more information.
