Summary

Machine-generated summary

Zero Waste Scotland plans to contract an organisation to recruit, manage and report on a series of circular economy internships placed within different enterprises across Scotland. The interns support businesses in identifying, designing and delivering circular economy practices, addressing the barrier of limited internal capacity to implement such approaches alongside day-to-day operations. The programme has run since 2020. This is a Prior Information Notice issued to gauge market interest; suppliers should register interest on Public Contracts Scotland. Registering does not affect any future selection, shortlisting or evaluation. A formal procurement exercise is anticipated later in the year, subject to internal approval and funding confirmation, and publication does not commit the authority to proceed.
