The project falls within the research and development services sector, and its goal is to examine household food waste recycling habits and assess the effects of various intervention messages. This direct procurement was conducted through WRAP's internal Framework - FRA083, specifically targeting Research Analysts (Lot 1). The procurement category is services, and the procurement method was direct, below the threshold, thereby without competition.
