Description

WRAP is seeking a contractor with expertise in the Welsh SME and manufacturing sector to develop a 'Circular Economy Health Check' tool. This tool will assess how manufacturers are engaging with circular economy principles and identify opportunities to reduce waste and environmental impact.

The contractor will design a structured assessment process, create a practical questionnaire or template, and develop a scoring system to benchmark circularity. The tool will help WRAP tailor support and action plans to accelerate manufacturers' transition to circular business models, including servitisation.
