Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the identification of plant material was conducted by the Home Office, with a contract valued at £10,000. The process involved the storage, identification, and potential quarantine of live and derived plants within the United Kingdom, specifically targeting London for delivery. This procurement was initiated through a direct method, noted as a single tender action below threshold, and concluded its tender period on 25th February 2020, with the contract commencing on 1st April 2020 and set to run until 31st March 2021.

This contract presents a significant opportunity for businesses engaged in the horticultural, botanical, or environmental services sectors, particularly those equipped to handle the quarantine and identification of plant materials. Companies that specialise in biosecurity, plant health, or related services would be well-positioned to leverage this opportunity to expand their operations and client base, working alongside an established organisation such as the Home Office and potentially the Royal Botanical Gardens, Kew.
