RFP Development

With over 9 years experience reviewing and responding to RFP’s for hazardous waste management and disposal (household hazardous waste, post-disaster collection planning, and permanent facility program development), Waste Options has observed that sometimes an entity’s purchasing department develops and issues the RFP for services without having the experience factor of actual hazardous waste operations and/or a complete understanding of the industry’s pricing standards.  This can cause confusion by bidding companies and creates potential for RFP amendment or for an RFP to be withdrawn and rebid.  Waste Options review can help an entity develop an industry knowledgeable and clear proposal.

Strategic Planning

Strategic Planning is the process to define an entity’s vision for its program and the programs goals and objectives. It is a process to establish the sequence in which those goals can be met so that the program can achieve its stated vision.  Strategic Planning for hazardous waste management programs usually incorporates short-term and mid to long-term goals with a life span of one and three to five years, respectively.   Strategic Planning includes program budget development, staffing, staff training and requirements, site selection and development, operations planning and implementation. We can help with collection event, permanent facility, curbside HHW, and CESQG programs.
