Purpose and Scope of Work WWF Cymru is seeking to build on a recently completed assessment of the biophysical capacity of food production in Wales to transition to a fully agroecological net zero pathway by 2050. This work consisted of the formulation of a computer model that projected the likely impact of a full agroecological shift on existing food production; the resultant impact on territorial and total greenhouse gas emissions/sequestration; and the potential to diversify production to better reflect Welsh nutritional needs . To develop these results further, WWF Cymru now wishes to refine a series of scenarios (examples provided below) to allow the model to be rerun, and then to undertake a wider economic & social/cultural analysis of the results. The aim of this work is to produce a series of assessed transition pathways that show both the likely impact on food production, carbon emissions/sequestration, and the obtainment of dietary needs; and the likely impact they would have if pursued on the rural Welsh economy and society out to 2050. The results will be used to inform Welsh Government policy and the wider sustainable land management discourse in Wales to foster positive changes in agricultural support and wider rural investment. Outputs: WWF Cymru requires the analysis to be presented in the form of a written report which contains the assessment for each scenario. These should be presented in a way which allows comparisons between each. We also require an additional non-technical summary report that is pitched towards public consumption. For this to work we expect it to include the use of infographics and other visual tools which present the results clearly, along with the policy steps which should be prioritised to achieve that scenario. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/e965cbc1-5b0f-4e36-bdc6-ff8a87d7c38c | | 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 | 6 Feb 2023 | | Submission deadline | 21 Feb 2023 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 1 Mar 2023 - 30 Apr 2023 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £30,000 | | 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 | CARDIFF | | Post town | Cardiff | | Postcode | CF10 2HH | | Country | Wales | | ITL 1 | TLL Wales | | ITL 2 | TLL5 South East Wales | | ITL 3 | TLL52 Cardiff and Vale of Glamorgan | | Local authority | Cardiff | | Electoral ward | Cathays | | Westminster constituency | Cardiff South and Penarth | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ### Codes - 73100000 - Research and experimental development services - 73200000 - Research and development consultancy services - 73300000 - Design and execution of research and development ## Release History - 6 Feb 2023 at 16:45 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/e965cbc1-5b0f-4e36-bdc6-ff8a87d7c38c ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/e965cbc1-5b0f-4e36-bdc6-ff8a87d7c38c 6th February 2023 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/a6053c58-f35e-4ca5-95e9-e193125c87ea - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/9565c205-ac25-4e23-a2cd-793ae99d1acf - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/2ce60c2e-8ceb-49c8-bc99-daed3b11d9bd ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
