This procurement falls under the industry category of research and development services and related consultancy services, and it is currently in the Tender stage. Proposals are invited to be submitted via email by midday on 27th January 2020. The contract is expected to commence on 12th February 2021, running until 30th April 2021, with all project activities set to be delivered in the United Kingdom. This tender offers a significant opportunity for consultancy firms with expertise in environmental standards and climate issues, particularly those focused on innovation in sustainability practices. Businesses experienced in working with multinational food companies and those familiar with the dynamics of corporate responsibility and environmental leadership would be well-positioned to compete for this contract. By engaging in this project, firms can leverage their capabilities to contribute to pressing environmental challenges while simultaneously enhancing their portfolio and reputation in the growing sustainability sector. ## Notice This project seeks to define climate leadership in the food industry, 2020 and beyond. The role of corporate climate leadership is more important than ever. The scale of corporate action to date has been impressive, but it is not enough to deliver a sustainable future. The bar for leadership is rising, and it is imperative that companies bring their stakeholders, including suppliers and customers, on the journey with them. WWF is working with one of the largest global food retailers to help reduce their environmental impact and lead the way for others to do the same. In order to go further and help shape climate leadership for the retail industry, we are looking to work with a suitably experienced independent consultancy firm or expert to shape and define the journey of climate leadership for a multinational food company, today and tomorrow (including trends, opportunities, pitfalls to watch out for, etc.). This should include: * Where the greatest potential innovations are to be unlocked in technology, policy, and practice (both own operations and supply chain). * A mapped view of where competitors, peers and other sector leaders are across various climate commitments and activities. Full details about this project scope and the desired outputs are described in the attached Consultancy Brief. WWF UK welcomes proposals, to be submitted by email by midday, 27th January 2020 to Sean Mallon, Climate Change Specialist, WWF-UK (email smallon@wwf.org.uk). Proposals should set out should set out (and support with evidence where necessary) the proposed approach and methodology, relevant experience, an outline project plan and full costs and expenses. Additional information: Please see attached WWF's standard terms and conditions of contract. In your response, please indicate whether these are acceptable or whether you would wish to propose any alternative terms. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/545da010-c1fb-4178-8366-e250fa409d0f | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 23 Dec 2020 | | Submission deadline | 27 Jan 2021 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 12 Feb 2021 - 30 Apr 2021 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | WWF-UK (WORLD WIDE FUND FOR NATURE) TRADING LIMITED | | Locality | WOKING | | Post town | Guildford | | Postcode | GU21 4LL | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLJ South East (England) | | ITL 2 | TLJ2 Surrey, East and West Sussex | | ITL 3 | TLJ25 West Surrey | | Local authority | Woking | | Electoral ward | Horsell | | Westminster constituency | Woking | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services - 90 - Sewage, refuse, cleaning and environmental services ### Codes - 73000000 - Research and development services and related consultancy services - 90711200 - Environmental standards other than for construction - 90713000 - Environmental issues consultancy services ## Release History - 23 Dec 2020 at 12:14 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/545da010-c1fb-4178-8366-e250fa409d0f - 23 Dec 2020 at 09:01 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/545da010-c1fb-4178-8366-e250fa409d0f ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/545da010-c1fb-4178-8366-e250fa409d0f 23rd December 2020 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/ffb9f85f-2d1a-41e2-b307-b07dc087e531 Consultant Brief Redefining Climate Leadership in the Food Industry - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/c568aaa7-9abe-4bd8-8d3a-5b51295d852f WWF UK Preferred Conditions of Contract ## Notice URLs - http://wwf.org.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
