Description
Defra wishes to update its data on the composition of mixed waste and use the updated information, as well as wider insights, to develop a predictive model. The waste composition fieldwork will cover mixed municipal and non-municipal wastes from up to 50 waste and recycling streams. Representative samples of waste from each stream will be sampled and sorted into materials/items using a category list supplied by Defra. Each material category sampled and sorted will be weighed. Data will be scaled up to tonnages using the EWC/LoW codes. A model will be developed using this data and a package of work investigating the drivers of waste composition.
Defra will procure the work in two Lots. The first Lot will cover fieldwork and development of the model. The second Lot is to appoint an independent fieldwork auditor who will assure the processes deployed minimise the risk of errors and inaccuracies in the data.
Additional information: Defra would like to invite interested suppliers to join an Early Market Engagement Event, in order to share a draft of the Specification and gather feedback on specific elements, which will help shape our requirement. If you are interested in participating in this event, please email [email protected] by Tuesday 12/04/2022 (12:00). A maximum of two participants from each organisation may join the event.

Please note, the call will be recorded and transcribed, with the intention that it is shared with those interested parties who are unable to attend the event.
