## Summary

The procurement process, titled "CEFAS21-117 RFQ to provide a series of workshops to discuss the path to implementation for labelling plastic in Sri Lanka," is initiated by Defra Network eTendering Portal. This tender falls under the Event Services category within the services industry. It is located in the East of England, United Kingdom, and is currently at the Tender stage. The tender was published on 1 December 2021, with a submission deadline set for 9 December 2021. The total estimated value of the contract is £25,000, and the contract period is expected to commence on 20 December 2021 and conclude on 31 March 2022. The procurement follows an open procedure, which is below the threshold for typical public contracts.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in event management, particularly those that specialise in training, education, and environmental services. Companies that can provide innovative workshop formats—considering both face-to-face and online delivery methods—will be particularly well-suited to compete. Furthermore, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) will find this as a favourable chance to engage with public and private sector stakeholders in Sri Lanka, enhancing their visibility and capabilities in a growing industry focused on sustainability and legislative compliance regarding plastic use.

## Notice

Cefas requires the development of a series of workshops to involve both public and private sector (plastic producers, importers, brokers, retailers, recyclers) in the discussion about new legislation and path to implementation for labelling plastic in Sri Lanka, highlighting the advantages related to plastic recycling. The workshop should preferentially be face to face where possible, but due to COVID limitations, a backup plan to deliver the workshop from remote through online platforms shall be presented. The actual delivery method will be agreed among CEA, Cefas and the supplier based on the possible restrictions imposed in Sri Lanka as a result of COVID pandemic.
