The bundling by oil contractors of hazardous and non-hazardous waste management into a single contract has put Guyanese companies at a significant disadvantage as they do not currently have the capacity to handle the former and the Local Content Secretariat (LCS) is addressing the matter.
The LCS has also confirmed that it has been receiving complaints from local companies on the effects of contract ‘bundling’ by oil contractors. Arising out of the complaints the Secretariat has now included stipulations in the procurement process to erase future problems of the same kind.
