Notice Information

Notice Title

Insect protein production

Notice Description

The overall aim of this project is to develop a roadmap indicating how the production of insect protein for animal feed can be scaled up so that it can begin to displace fishmeal and eventually soya bean meal. The report should consolidate existing research and build a body of evidence which can be used to catalyse the expansion of insect protein production in Europe, with focus on the UK. The final output will be a WWF report. Assessment of proposals Proposals should include the relevant background of the consultant(s) involved, CVs of consultants who will participate in the project, a cost estimate for the project to include the daily rate, the number of days the consultant(s) plan to spend on the work (broken down by task if possible), and a detailed timeline for delivery of the reports by 31 August 2020. The application should be no longer than 6 sides plus CVs of participating consultants. Proposals will be assessed using a selection of criteria, likely including: fit to brief, previous experience of consultancy, how quickly the work can be completed, value for money, credible proposed methodology. Closing date to submit proposals: 06 April 2020 Delivery of final report: TBC but approx. 31 August 2020 Guidance on budget available: PS30,000 - PS60,000
