## Summary

The tender titled "CEFAS20-20 - CLiP Review desktop study on the waste management (Sri Lanka)" is being conducted by the Defra Network eTendering Portal. This procurement falls under the services category, specifically focusing on waste analysis services. The buying organisation is keen to address the critical issue of marine litter stemming from poor waste management in Sri Lanka. The tender period is open until 19th November 2020, and the successful contractor will be expected to deliver a project starting from 30th November 2020, with completion by 31st March 2021. The project's overall budget is set at £30,000, and the procurement method is an open procedure, allowing for broader participation.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in waste management, environmental consultancy, or research services. Enterprises equipped to conduct thorough desktop studies and analyses, particularly those with experience in developing countries or marine environmental issues, would be especially well-suited to compete. Companies should ideally have capabilities in waste characterisation and analysis, along with a strong understanding of local contexts to contribute effectively to this important initiative. Engaging in this project not only enhances business visibility but also contributes to environmentally responsible practices on a global scale.

## Notice

Cefas will work with partners across the Commonwealth to share expertise and find solutions to the environmental and socio-economic problems caused by litter in the marine environment. As poor waste management on land is a major source of marine litter, understanding what contributes to this, determining waste composition and understanding why it is mismanaged is important. Cefas requires the successful Tenderer to develop a desktop study to assess the current situation of waste management within Sri Lanka. The Tenderer will base their analysis on existing scientific literature, official reports and interviews with experts from relevant local or international stakeholders that can address possible knowledge gaps or provide unpublished data ('grey literature'). The overall aim of the desktop study is to understand how solid waste mismanagement in Sri Lanka is contributing to marine litter, considering both major leaks of waste into the environment and the status of the initiatives that are currently diverting waste from disposal (recycling, reducing, reusing, composting, bans etc).
