What is being bought

Published requirement description

The North London Waste Authority (the Authority) and its seven constituent boroughs, namely the London Boroughs of Barnet, Camden, Waltham Forest, Enfield, Islington, Hackney and Haringey, need to start the development of a robust joint strategy.

The Authority is seeking a consultant to provide services including: stakeholder engagement and public consultation exercises, assessment of current baselines of Local Authority Collected Waste (LACW); forecasting of how waste tonnage/compositions will change over the NLJWS period; modelling the impacts of waste prevention and reuse interventions; modelling the performance of waste/recycling collection services and a number of impact assessments (including a Strategic Environment Assessment and an Equalities Impact Assessment).

The Authority and the boroughs have decided to divide the procurement and delivery of the work into three stages:

  • Part 1 - Public and Stakeholder Engagement
  • Part 2- Data collection, forecasting, modelling
  • Part 3 - Additional Public and Stakeholder Engagement and Impact Assessments
