Liverpool City Region Combined Authority
The Liverpool City Region Combined Authority (LCRCA) is looking to create a new active travel map (walking, wheeling and cycling), primarily concentrating on cycle routes and facilities across the city region. The supplier will work with the LCRCA and the six constituent authorities (Halton, Knowsley, Liverpool, Sefton, St Helens and Wirral) to develop a map that is both clear and easy to use. The result of the contract will be six maps (1 for each local authority area) of active travel facilities such as segregated cycle lanes, off road cycle networks and on road quiet routes.

GMH Technical Consultant Procurement in Indonesia
Waste & Resources Action Programme
Food waste is a major source of methane, a potent short-lived climate forcer. Globally, food waste contributes substantially to greenhouse gas emissions and resource inefficiency across supply chains. Rice is a staple food for Indonesia with a high-volume commodity in which post-harvest losses and handling inefficiencies can generate both food waste and methane emissions from spoilage and poor storage. Improved resource efficiency in rice supply chains can reduce food waste, cut methane emission, and improve livelihoods and economic performance. With the above background, WRAP is seeking experienced consultant/team to undertake a food loss and waste hotspot analysis across the Indonesian rice supply chain (on-farm, collection points, storage, milling and processing, distribution/transport, retail and household) for selected rice supply chains in Indonesia to collaboratively collect operational data within the supply chain (where feasible tonnes, value, and data necessary to...
