GBB was selected by Madera County, CA, to perform a third-party review of the County’s solid waste system, provide recommendations for improvements, and assist with a procurement process, including developing Request for Proposal (RFP) document(s), evaluating proposals, and assisting with negotiations.

Prior to GBB’s involvement, the County decided to terminate its contracts for solid waste collection in the unincorporated areas below 1000 feet and operations of the Fairmead Landfill, Mammoth Materials Recovery Facility, household hazardous waste facility, and North Fork Transfer Station. As a result, GBB assisted in the fast-tracked strategic plan development and procurement process for a new contractor in order to ensure a cost-effective operation.
