Staffordshire County Council

Contract Value

£60,000 to £100,000

Tender Description

Staffordshire County Council (SCC), on behalf of the Strategic Coordinating Group (SCG), is looking to commission the independent production of a Community Impact Study. Its primary aim is to help partners to understand the health, social and economic impacts of the air pollution and associated disruption, which has resulted from the operation of the Walleys Quarry landfill operation during the period since January 2021.

This shared evidence-base will be used by partners across Staffordshire to inform future action and ongoing management of the landfill site, support engagement with central government on the issue of Walley's Quarry, as well as drawing lessons learned to inform the management of future incidents. The Impact Assessment will not only provide an assessment of those key impacts on the community at a point in time, but also consider the future for the local community.

The project has several key components:
Analysis of existing evidence and desktop review - a synthesis of existing evidence setting out known impacts.
Interviews with SCG partners - to capture their perspectives about impact on the community and on their services.
Design and delivery of local community engagement activities - to involve the community in the development of the Study and provide additional evidence.
Establish a Community Steering Committee - to ensure community representation from the outset, to build trust and consensus.
Produce a comprehensive, statistically valid, Impact Study.
The maximum budget available is £60,000.

There is an additional £40,000 available should the Council require any further optional services. However, there is no guarantee that any additional work will be required. Tender submissions should only be for the work set out in the service specification, with a maximum price of £60,000 with the work to be completed by August 2024.
