This project falls under the industry category of foreign economic-aid-related services. The procurement stage is complete, following a selective procurement method through a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract, worth £443,925, commenced on 17 May 2019 and concluded on 30 September 2019. Key activities included engagement with developing countries to tackle plastic waste and support resource allocation. This tender presents significant opportunities for business growth, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary and community sector enterprises (VCSEs) with expertise in environmental sustainability, waste management, and international development. Businesses that can demonstrate capacity to provide technical assistance and support in addressing plastic waste challenges, especially within Commonwealth countries, would be well-positioned to compete in similar future contracts. ## Notice The objectives are: 1. Work with DFID and Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) to identify key contacts in developing country CCOA members and agree the key parameters of what activities can be supported and the prioritisation criteria to apply in resource allocation; 2. Engage with key contacts at a technical level to identify ambition and needs for support to tackle plastic waste. This may include some limited orientation and awareness raising among CCOA partner country stakeholders on key challenges and potential solutions; 3. Sense-check that the activities and support proposed have political buy-in, are likely to lead to sustainable outcomes and are likely to deliver good value for money, and are complimentary to existing efforts.
