PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP IN CURRENT WASTE
COLLECTION SYSTEM
Target:
‣ To introduce the Private sector participation in solid waste
management involving the following activities:
o To privatize the collection mechanism by provision of
vehicles or heavy equipment for the collection of waste
and thereby increase the collection efficiency of waste
collection.
o Optimization in the transportation costs
Lead Agency: PMC
Support Agency: ISWM Cell, NGOs, Schools and Residential welfare,
society associations and industry associations like MCCIA
Location (Suggested): This project will be implemented at the city level.
Description: In order to introduce private partnership interventions in the
Solid Waste Management, and especially Solid Waste Collection mechanisms
PMC should hire the services of a consultant. The consultant should be
commissioned
‣ To study and assess the prevalent collection systems and operation. The
deployment of human resources, their training levels and competencies,
collection capacity of vehicle fleet, frequency and timings of collection,
the condition of the vehicles as well as the adopted routes should be
assessed.
‣ On the basis of this detailed assessment, the consultant should identify
the gaps and suggest points for private party interventions.
‣ The consultant should also assist PMC in selecting the most beneficiary
PPP model and identify stake-holders/partners for the same.
‣ The consultant should assist PMC in identifying potential locations for
setting up the pilot plants should be identified, followed by a detailed
analysis of alternatives.
‣ For the selected location, bid documents should be prepared for
introducing private partnerships. The concerns of the human resources
and the gaps identified during the initial assessment should be reflected
in the bid documents.
‣ The pilot plant should be evaluated on the basis of guidelines set in
consultation with PMC.
The success of the pilot plant can later be up-scaled at the city level to
improvise overall efficiency.

• The private sector has shown that it
can provide a more efficient or costeffective
service.
• The private sector often has better
access to capital financing and so it is
able to use more efficient equipment.

companies can form joint ventures
with international specialist firms.

more control over who is in their
workforce and how they should work.

restricted by bureaucratic procedures
and more able to concentrate
