06142019 - Alberta Collaborative Extended Producer Responsibility Study

The Alberta Urban Municipalities Association. (AUMA) represents urban municipalities including cities, towns, villages, summer villages and specialized municipalities - where over 85% of Albertans live. In partnership with the Cities of Edmonton, Calgary and the Canadian Stewardship Services Alliance, AUMA is issuing this RFP on behalf of the ACES Governance Committee and will work in conjunction with the ACES Project Team to review and choose a successful proponent. Once a successful proponent is chosen, all project management roles will be conducted by the ACES Project Team Leader with the support of the ACES Project Team.
The ACES Project Team is requesting proposals from qualified proponents to meet two primary objectives of the Alberta Collaborative EPR Study:
1. To provide an overview of the current state of the recycling systems and supply chains and their related costs across the province of Alberta, and
2. Categorize and detail the potential impacts of an EPR program (FUTURE State)—benefits, challenges and risks of an EPR program in Alberta in relation to major stakeholders.
