Transition

  • Either selection will result in a transition
  • Transition pitfalls:

– Equipment arrives late – Container roll-out problems – Inadequate customer response

  • Strong contract management will be

required regardless

  • If Recology is selected - current agreement

requires strong transition assistance by Allied

Conclusions

Two choices

  • Choose Recology if City:

– Wishes to receive diversion programs designed to achieve higher diversion levels – Wishes to draw on successful performance in a comparable urban environment (i.e., San Francisco) – Pay less – Change contractors and disposal sites

  • Choose Allied if City:

– Is satisfied with Allied’s past performance (supplemented by an added Municipal Services Manager contract management and contract compliance) – Wishes to avoid changing contractors and disposal sites – Is willing to accept lower levels of diversion – Is willing to accept higher costs
