The procurement process is currently in the tender stage, with proposals required by midday on 7th February 2022. The consultancy is expected to run from 23rd February to 26th August 2022, with an allocated budget of £50,000 for research and development consultancy services, reflecting the importance of sustainability in the UK food produce industry. This tender presents a valuable opportunity for businesses specialised in consultancy services focusing on sustainability, agricultural practices, and supply chain management. Companies equipped with a strong understanding of sustainable agricultural methods and experience in conducting evaluative research would be particularly well-suited to compete. The initiative not only aims to improve sustainability within supply chains but also has the potential to scale up effective practices that could benefit the wider retail sector, thereby offering a platform for growth for smaller enterprises and community-focused organisations. ## Notice WWF-UK and Tesco are working in partnership to spearhead change within the retail sector, including the use of exemplar landscapes to test and deliver sustainable agricultural practices into several UK food produce supply chains. It is well documented, and clearly evident from these exemplar landscapes, that supply chains can be complex and there are many barriers to delivering sustainability. WWF wishes to undertake an evaluative consultancy that seeks to explore and unravel the issues tied up in domestic agricultural supply chains. Using live Tesco supply chain examples as working case studies, the selected consultant will drill into these chains to understand how greater agricultural sustainability can be leveraged through overcoming barriers and levels of complexity. Building on this, we want to explore a theoretical sustainable transition for one specific product, and identify the practical routes to "scale-up" our learnings; both within the WWF - Tesco Partnership and at the wider retail sector level. We request submissions by Monday 7th February 2022 for a consultancy to run from 23rd February to 26th August 2022 (latest). Consortium proposals are welcome.
