Within the STAND Up! activities programme, MedWaves, acting as the project Lead Partner has launched a call for tenders for a consultancy service to test a roll made of sheep wool as an insulation material to obtain the certificates to be used in the construction sector.

The assignment will be developed in two distinct phases:

– a first set of activities aimed at identifying which certificates are required for the use of sheep’s wool roll for building purposes and which tests need to be carried out to obtain them.

– a second session will involve the active development of the identified tests with the laboratories involved.

The selected consultant will have to be able, among other scheduled tasks, to recognise the product to be tested, identify market demand and production volume as well as prioritise the tests to be performed by identifying potential laboratories capable of performing the tests and the costs to perform (part or all) of them.

The professional will be also responsible of the contract with the laboratory and the payments for their services.

Candidates must submit the documents carefully described in the Term of reference which also details the content of the assignment (descriprtion, deliverables and calendar), the eligibility criteria for candidates, the apply and selection process and the payment modalities.

The deadline to apply is 27th February 2023 at 12pm.

Please Note: offers must be sent by email to Anna Ibañez (aibanez@gencat.cat) with the subject “Testing wool products for insulation”.
