## Summary

The procurement process involves the Department for International Development (DFID) awarding the "DFID 8425 Accra Plastics Management Pilot Contract". This project falls under the category of foreign economic-aid-related services and is focused on improving waste collection and management systems in Ghana. The contract, valued at £907,925, was awarded on 12th December 2018, with the contract period spanning from 13th December 2018 to 12th December 2019. The procurement method used was selective, based on a call-off from a framework agreement.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses involved in waste management, recycling, and environmental services, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs). Companies that can demonstrate expertise in waste collection and the development of processing facilities may find themselves well-suited to participate in similar future contracts. Engaging with key stakeholders, such as the Government of Ghana and private sector alliances like GRIPE, will be crucial for success in this sector.

## Notice

This requirement will require the supplier to work with the Government of Ghana, a private sector alliance (the Ghana Recycling Initiative by Private Enterprises, GRIPE) and other key actors, to address shortcomings in waste collection and management systems and mobilise investment in recycling and processing facilities.
