Other Information

The consultant will develop a report to set out which assessments of carbon emissions are used in general in farmed fish and shrimp species (sourced by Tesco), including production method. The goal is to assess which method of measuring and recording carbon emissions is the most effective for each farmed fish and shrimp species and production method and use the findings to advocate for alignment in the sector. A supplementary aim is to provide an overview of secondary suppliers of farmed fish and shrimp species into Tesco to identify how they measure their carbon emissions and if they have clear targets to achieve carbon emission reductions established. The output will be used to identify how Tesco's indirect supply base for farmed fish and shrimp should measure and record their carbon emissions and which reduction plans they should have in place. The output would help create supplier action plans to improve status on measuring, reporting as well as reduction plans. Interested consultants should submit a project proposal by November 30 2021 and clearly outline the proposed methodologies and how they meet all the objectives described in the attached Terms of Reference document. The proposal should be 3-4 pages of A4 (not including CVs) and present the timeline, resources allocation on delivering the final report, any previous relevant experience along with CVs and references to previous work. Please also include a rate card as well as a breakdown of the cost. Responses should be sent by email to Abigayil Blandon, WWF-UK Seafood Policy Officer: ABlandon@wwf.org.uk. WWF-UK prefers to use the attached Standard Terms and Conditions for Contracting these services.
