Water Roadmap Project - Wye and Usk catchments

Location

Description

WRAP would like to provide the Wye & Usk Foundation a direct award contract to continue as our delivery partner for the Water Roadmap collective action project in the Wye and Usk catchments. Whilst longer term agreements with our delivery partners are required to provide them the stability to deliver impact over time, the approach of offering WRAP’s delivery partners a 12 month direct award contract has been agreed, this provides project continuity in the shorter term during which a longer-term procurement solution is confirmed.

Legal Justification

WRAP are providing the Wye & Usk foundation a 12 month direct award contract to continue as our delivery partner for the Water Roadmap collective action project in the Wye and Usk catchments. As well as being strategically important food sourcing areas for the UK supply chain as a whole and many of WRAP’s food business stakeholders, they are also well loved and ecologically important, with areas designated as ‘Special Areas of Conservation’ and ‘Sites of Special Scientific Interest’. Notwithstanding, the catchments have experienced recent ecological decline as a result of diffuse pollution from agriculture. Consequently, the catchments are a high priority for WRAP and our stakeholders to improve water stewardship under the Water Roadmap. Improving water stewardship is a long term endeavour recognised by WRAP and our business funders who make a 3-year financial commitment to each of the collective action projects. The stability this provides enables WRAP’s delivery partners to build relationships, develop and implement solutions and maintain the expertise required to tackle significant challenges requiring the collaboration of hundreds, if not thousands of stakeholders.
