Notice Title
Assessing Sustainable Practices in Public Procurement of Food
Notice Description
This objective of this new research project is to undertake an evidence assessment to evaluate interventions in public sector food procurement and catering which support the transition towards a sustainable food system, providing healthy diets within planetary boundaries. Proposals are invited from organisations and/or consortia that can demonstrate a clear appreciation of the policy objectives, a sound methodological approach that adequately manages the risks involved in the project and relevant experience and breadth of expertise. This project will be funded by Defra's Agri-Food Chain Directorate's Food Science Programme. Defra's Agri-Food Chain vision is for the UK to lead the world in food and farming with a sustainable model of food production, which includes supporting UK businesses to run profitable, low-carbon enterprises, producing high quality food whilst boosting biodiversity and delivering a diverse range of public goods including tackling climate change. Additional information: Please note that Defra procurement uses an E-tendering system for Procurement activities. This is currently provided by Bravo Solutions. To access appropriate tendering and contractual documents, please access the E-Tendering portal at https://defra.bravosolution.co.uk, ensuring that your registration includes "Defra". If you have any problems with this system, please contact Bravo on their telephone helpline number 0800 368 4850 or by emailing them at help@bravosolution.co.uk.
