Contractor support is required to provide fabric technology and durability expertise to support circular design, durability, and business development activities.
This work has been awarded under WRAP’s internal Framework FRA080 – Materials System Transformation Technical & Consultancy Support Framework, Lot 1 – Transform Textiles.
This direct award relates to the exercise of an optional contract extension following a mini-competition undertaken under the framework. The extension option formed part of the original advertised contract scope and value.
This transparency notice is being published due to a technical issue within the Delta eSourcing system preventing publication of the contract change notice.
