## Summary

The North Yorkshire Council is managing a procurement process titled "Waste options appraisal and strategy," which falls under the industry category of Research and Development services. This initiative is focused on appraising waste infrastructure options and providing a waste strategy document to the councils of North Yorkshire and the City of York.

Companies that are well-positioned to optimise or innovate in the field of sustainable waste management will find this project a promising avenue for growth.
