[DescrShort]

The EPA Research 2030 Framework is the new 10-year research framework for EPA Research Programming over the period 2021 – 2030. Key elements of the Framework are to deliver accessible research outputs and transfer knowledge of the research results and outputs to stakeholders and the public by way of final project reports and synthesis reports (circa 40 per year) which are made available on the EPA website.
As a result, there is a need for proofreading, copy-editing, typesetting and formatting expertise to prepare these reports to a standard suitable for publication.
It is therefore intended to establish a Framework Agreement with Multiple Operators for Proofreading, copyediting, typesetting and formatting services over a period of 4 years.
The EPA also produces a wide variety of other non-research reports. The Framework agreement once established will include all EPA publications (not just research publications).
