The objective of this framework is to provide high quality Research Analyst services to WRAP for qualitative, quantitative and modelling research and analysis, to support us with effective delivery of our projects and programmes. The analysts appointed to this framework shall have significant demonstrable skills, expertise and experience in the specialisms they have indicated, to deliver this objective and requires of this framework effectively.
The framework is to be set across three lots:
Lot 1: Qualitative Research and Insight Generation
(Skills focused on gathering and interpreting rich, non-numerical data)
e.g. Topic Guide Design (Focus Group Research), Literature Review (e.g., Rapid Evidence Assessment), Content Analysis, Survey Questionnaire Design
Lot 2: Quantitative Research and Advanced Analysis
(Skills focused on numerical data analysis, statistical methods, and causal modelling)
e.g. Regression Analysis, Statistical Tests, Advanced Consumer Research Analysis techniques (e.g., Implicit Association)
Lot 3: Economic, Financial, and Systems Modelling
(Skills focusing on building models, simulations, and financial/systematic impact analysis)
e.g. Cost benefit analysis, Life Cycle Assessment, Financial Modelling

The work sitting underneath the Marketing and Campaigns programme in WRAP is an integral part of our citizen engagement and behaviour change delivery; empowering citizens to take action - creating real, sustainable behaviour change in the communities we work in, with and for. Working with governments, businesses and citizens, we take a holistic approach; gather and consider the evidence, collaborate with all partners in the system and propose circular solutions that work together and across the supply chain to protect and restore our natural world. The objective of this framework is to provide high quality creative and marketing support in these areas to maximise our impact and achieve this vision:
Driving the adoption of the circular living
Increasing producer responsibility for products and packaging
Facilitating collaboration
Influencing policy and regulation
Inspiring more behaviour change

Background:
Despite the size of this facility more useable space is still required. The Authority is currently struggling to accommodate all of the materials it is receiving and processing, and the current site layout does not allow for any potentially additional materials, such as plastic film, which is likely to be introduced in the future, in line with WG policy.
One small piece of land just inside the perimeter of the site was recently highlighted by the authority as having potential for equipment storage and this has now been concreted. However, this piece of land may also be suitable for further expansion with a view to building a roofed structure which could potential house one or more material storage bays.
The objectives of this work are:
CAD and .pdf drawings are to be produced showing all potential structure designs.
The findings are then to be brought together into a report which will be shared with the Local Authority for comment and discussion with WRAP.

WRAP requires access to specialist UK employment law advice on an occasional, responsive basis when urgent or sensitive matters arise. This support is currently not required at a volume that justifies a large retainer or ongoing contracted hours; however, when issues do occur, timely expert guidance is essential to manage organisational risk and ensure compliance with employment legislation.
Whilst WRAP currently has a relationship with their existing charity Legal Team, there remains a need for a supplementary adviser with deep familiarity with WRAP's operating model, policies and employment practices. This enables swift, context-specific advice when circumstances require immediate action.

This is a call off from our internal framework FRA080: Materials Systems Transformation (MST) Framework (Lots 1 & 2).
The overall aim of the work is to consider of the impacts of a requirement for the separate presentation and collection of plastic film and textiles as part of the workplace recycling law in Wales. The baseline for this analysis should include the outcomes as modelled in the 2025 RIA for phases 1 and 2 of the Workplace Recycling Regs.
The successful contractor will:
• build a model capable of processing all required data to deliver the new RIA to include the additional material streams;
• present the findings in the format of an RIA, in a similar format to be consistent with the one published by the Welsh Government in 2019, 2023 and 2025

The objective of this work is to obtain a bespoke waste Environmental Permit for Torfaen County Borough Council's (TCBC) Blaenavon Recycling Facility ('the site').
As part of its local authority support, WRAP Cymru's Collaborative Change Programme (CCP) is supporting TCBC to design, develop and operate its new waste transfer station (WTS) facility in Blaenavon. This project will form part of the wider strategic and operational support provided to the Local Authority (LA).

The objective of this work is to produce a compliant Fire Prevention and Mitigation Plan (FPMP) for Flintshire County Council's (FCC) Greenfield Recycling Park ('the site').
The site hosts three distinct activities and associated operational areas: a Household Recycling Centre (HRC), a Waste Transfer Station (WTS), and a composting operation. The Local Authority (LA) has been undertaking a holistic review of the county's waste operations- and as a result, would like to revise current arrangements to bring some or all of the bulking of kerbside recyclates in-house.
1.3 This change will prompt the need to fully utilise the WTS building for bulking and storage of kerbside waste- including some combustible waste streams. The building is currently used for storage of salt. The proposed new operation would include the transfer of kerbside mixed plastic and cans, cardboard and paper, glass, food waste, and batteries. There is no mechanical sorting, baling, shredding or any other waste treatment activity taking place within the WTS- solely the bulking up and storage of waste. Once the management of some or all of the kerbside materials is brought back in-house, the LA would also like to utilise the WTS area of the site to bulk wood waste arisings from the HRC operations.
FCC currently holds a bespoke permit for the facility (BP3298VK) with all three operations being included in one permit. A compliance review exercise undertaken in 2022 highlighted some gaps in compliance, including the lack of a compliant FPMP for the site. Ahead of resuming full WTS operations, a compliant FPMP has to be in place for the site.

WRAP plans to provide Good Stuff International with a temporary direct award to continue as our delivery partner for the water collective action project in Peru.
WRAP and some of our Water Roadmap businesses support a water collective action project in Ica, Peru, which is currently coordinated by IDH, an NGO based in The Netherlands. WRAP has agreed in principle to take over coordination of the project from 1st January 2026.
Good Stuff International (GSI) is the project's delivery partner. The purpose of this temporary direct award from WRAP to GSI is to provide continuity in project delivery during the transfer of the project to WRAP.
