Notice Title

Creating a Global Food Loss Metric

Notice Description

We are seeking a highly experienced consultant or consortium to develop a global on-farm food loss metric that can be accessed by farmers for use on farms of all sizes and types. This will build on the existing metrics and measurement guidance published by WRAP, WWF-US, FAO and other organisations to consolidate the existing metrics into a simple to use tool, outputting information in a manner which is consistent with reporting requirements and standards but in a user friendly manner. Creating a tool which moves us towards standardisation of data inputs and outputs across key stakeholders is a pivotal goal in this work. We have approximately PS70-85k including VAT to support this work. Thank you for expressing an interest in working with and supporting WWF-UK with this important piece of work. We look forward to receiving your response.
