Kessler Consulting assisted the City of Denver with procuring operating services for its single stream MRF.  Project activities included assistance in the formation of the City’s procurement strategy, guidance in the development of appropriate procurement documents, and other requested technical expertise.

As part of the project team Kessler Consulting evaluated the City of Denver’s recycling infrastructure, including collection, processing, and marketing systems and services at the privately-owned and operated Materials Recovery Facility (MRF).  Project activities included an evaluation of processing and marketing types, preparation of a single stream processing RFP, and assistance with the contract negotiations and procurement.

As part of the project team, Kessler Consulting assisted with development of a Solid Waste Master Plan for the City of Denver. The plan, designed to illustrate the City’s programs through the year 2030, evaluates the current solid waste system and makes both short and long recommendations. Denver’s program is a diverse solid waste system that includes municipally provided collection and drop sites, public and private partnerships for disposal and recycling processing, and Household Hazardous Waste programs.

As part of the project team, Kessler Consulting evaluated the Airport’s current collection agreement with a large national hauler, and developed a number of recommendations the Airport can use in future procurement or contract negotiations. The evaluation included a review of compactor and equipment rental terms, disposal and hauling agreements, and assistance with future planning initiatives including recycling and composting efforts at the Airport facilities.
