This project, classified within the agricultural and environmental consultancy industries, aims to understand on-farm food loss and to devise interventions to mitigate such losses. The tender is currently in the active phase, with the application deadline set for 26th June 2020. The contract is expected to commence on 10th July 2020 and run until 28th September 2020, with a total estimated value of £100,000. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, specifically those engaged in research and development, environmental consultancy, and agricultural services. Companies with expertise in environmental impact assessment, data collection, and stakeholder engagement may find this tender particularly beneficial. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to participate, as the buyer acknowledges their suitability for fulfilling the contract requirements. ## Notice The overall aim is to understand the scale and significance of on-farm losses (in relation to other stages in the value chain) and what needs to be done to address these. We seek to understand the potential scale of food loss in different parts of the world and to better understand the environmental and social impacts resulting from those losses. We want to understand some of the key drivers for these losses in order to be able to identify and design a suite of possible interventions to mitigate them. Furthermore, we seek to better understand the perceptions of some key stakeholders along the food value chain for their views and understanding of food losses to ensure mitigations and interventions proposed are fit for purpose. This project should build on and add to the vast body of literature that exists as well as conduct new primary research (e.g. through stakeholder interviews) where necessary. Proposals should be maximum 5 pages in length and include: * Your approach and proposed method to address the Project Objectives and Outputs. * Consideration of available data and collection methods * A project plan detailing proposed scope and timeframes * Details of relevant experience. * A fee proposal including total days and day rates for each member of staff who will work on the project, and any non-staff/travel/ancillary costs. * Names and CVs of all staff who will work on the project, and proposed roles (can be beyond the 5 pages). Deadline to apply is Friday 26th June. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/b0110c45-7581-45aa-8eb4-db959407776f | | 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 | 5 Jun 2020 | | Submission deadline | 26 Jun 2020 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 9 Jul 2020 - 28 Sep 2020 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £100,000 | | 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 | 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 | TLJ South East (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 03 - Agricultural, farming, fishing, forestry and related products - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services - 90 - Sewage, refuse, cleaning and environmental services ### Codes - 03000000 - Agricultural, farming, fishing, forestry and related products - 73200000 - Research and development consultancy services - 90711000 - Environmental impact assessment other than for construction - 90713000 - Environmental issues consultancy services ## Release History - 5 Jun 2020 at 10:37 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/b0110c45-7581-45aa-8eb4-db959407776f - 4 Jun 2020 at 16:11 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/b0110c45-7581-45aa-8eb4-db959407776f - 4 Jun 2020 at 15:09 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/b0110c45-7581-45aa-8eb4-db959407776f ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/b0110c45-7581-45aa-8eb4-db959407776f 5th June 2020 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/799eb038-7816-412c-ab1c-7106458cf4f8 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/837dc2e1-7fdc-4fdb-923b-4b70dcf12ac0 ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
