Summary of the contracting process

Zero Waste Scotland Ltd is currently engaged in a public procurement process for the "Love Food Hate Waste (LFHW) Workforce and Community Training and Engagement" contract, classified under the services category. This tender is based in Stirling, Scotland, and seeks to modify an active contract due to the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. The initial contract was awarded to Energy Saving Trust on 27 August 2018 with a total value of £250,000, and the modification is intended to extend service provision until 1 April 2022. The procurement follows an open approach and is currently in the contract modification stage, allowing for continuity in services while further planning takes place.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in training and environmental services, particularly those experienced in community engagement and waste reduction initiatives. Companies that specialise in educational programmes, sustainability practices, or have a proven track record in running training sessions for diverse audiences would be well-suited to compete. The requirement for ongoing training services in a post-pandemic landscape indicates a sustained demand for quality submissions, making this a valuable tender for enterprises aiming to expand their footprint in the public sector.

Lot Information

Lot 1

The "Love Food Hate Waste (LFHW) Workforce and Community Training and Engagement" contract was awarded to Energy Saving Trust on 27 August 2018 following an Open Tender process through the Official Journal of the European Union (OJEU), reference 2018/S 168-383122. The contract was to provide cascade training for the Love Food Hate Waste (LFHW) programme by engaging with householders in their workplace or at community or other events, utilising training materials and session plans developed during delivery of a similar service under a previous contract arrangement. The service requirements included: - Co-ordination and delivery of workforce training sessions - Co-ordination and delivery of community / public sector cascade training sessions - Attendance at community and other events to support the LFHW programme - Evaluation of training sessions and event attendance - Support for the development of case studies with suitable participants - Reporting progress and feedback on delivery of training sessions The maximum term of this contract, including all extension options provided, is 31 March 2021. This modification is required to allow continuation of the service provision for a maximum period of twelve (12) months, to 01 April 2022. There is no change to the nature and extent of the services required or to the original estimated value of the contract in the Contract Award Notice, that being 250,000 GBP exclusive of VAT. The modification will allow the contractor to continue to arrange and deliver training sessions to interested parties while Zero Waste Scotland develops the business case for continuation of the same or an amended service in a post-COVID-19 landscape. We would anticipate that any procurement procedure required for a replacement service would commence during the third quarter of 2021 (that is, between October to December), subject to the continued business need and funding availability.

Options: This will be achieved with a four-stage process and managed between ZWS and the contractor utilising key appointed contacts. Meeting will be held quarterly to develop yearly plans and PO will be supplied on a 2-6 month basis depending on the specific requirement and contractor plan for that time period. An initiation meeting will also be required within one week of the start of the contract.

Renewal: 6 month then subject to additional optional two, 12-month extensions. (30 month)
