WRM is a specialist waste and resource management consultancy with over twenty years’ experience of supporting local authorities to deliver high performing and cost-effective services.
Our recent work has addressed a wide range of waste reforms, including Simpler Recycling policies, DRS, pEPR, and Waste ETS. We have also supported authorities to integrate and align services in response to LGR processes.
WRM offers local authorities a comprehensive range of consultancy support to address these drivers, including:
- Options assessments – to identify and formally evaluate the suitability of alternative delivery models.
- Benchmarking – to assess performance and quantify service improvement potential.
- Waste strategy development – preparing for, and responding to, policy drivers; and, embedding changes in council strategy through deliverable action plans.
- Feasibility assessment for local authority infrastructure - including waste transfer stations, HWRCs’ MRF’s and composting sites.
- Business case preparation – to support Officers navigate governance and approvals processes. Business case preparation has included development of full techno-economic (e.g. integrated waste flow and cost) service models.
- Contract development and procurement support – including waste collections, street cleansing and waste infrastructure procurements. Our team also actively manage complex (competitive dialogue) procurements and have represented client teams during negotiations.
- LGR support – work to integrate and align district services into a single seamless unitary authority service.
- Street cleansing reviews – including audits and strategies in line with COPLAR.
- Interim management support – to mobilise and manage service changes.
