Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs is currently conducting a tender for the "Carcase Disposal and Transport Framework" aimed at providing disposal and transportation services for infected or potentially infected animal carcases and by-products. This framework will serve Central Government Departments, their Agencies, and Local Authorities across the United Kingdom, including the Scottish and Welsh Governments. The tender is classified under agricultural services and was published on 1st June 2015. The initial contract period spans from 1st July 2015 to 30th June 2016, with the possibility of a 12-month extension. The open procurement method invites submissions until the deadline on 16th June 2015.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those involved in waste management, transportation services, and biohazard disposal. Companies that specialise in agricultural or veterinary services would be well-positioned to compete given the tender's focus on dealing with infected materials, especially in the context of a disease outbreak. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, allowing them to expand their service offerings and build connections with public sector organisations.
