Summary of the contracting process

The Agriculture and Horticulture Development Board (AHDB) is currently in the tender stage for the "AHDB Digital Grain Passport" project, which aims to establish a digital data hub for data exchange among participants in the UK combinable crop supply chains. The tender period is open until 22nd September 2021, and it involves services under the industry category of data collection and collation. The proposed contract is set to commence on 1st March 2022 and will last until 29th February 2024. This project is significant for all stakeholders across the supply chain in England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland, intending to modernise and replace the existing paper passport process for crop movements.

This tender presents a substantial opportunity for businesses, particularly those specialised in data management, agricultural technology, and digital solutions, to contribute to the development of the proposed digital data hub. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) with expertise in IT services and systems integration will find this tender especially relevant, as their participation could enable them to expand their portfolio and engage with a vital aspect of the UK agriculture sector. By participating, these businesses can enhance their visibility and credibility in the market, potentially leading to further contracts and collaborations within the industry.

Notice Title

AHDB Digital Grain Passport

Notice Description

The Agriculture and Horticulture Development Board (AHDB) is seeking proposals from companies to provide a digital data hub allowing data exchange between participants in combinable crop supply chains, AHDB and the wider industry. Every combinable crop grower, haulier, merchant and processor in the UK will have access to it. Part of the project's ambition is to replace the current paper passport process for combinable crop movements across the UK. The project's objectives are to: - Build on the earlier eGrain Passport pilot project and develop a fully operational system for all combinable crops and all supply chains across the UK - Expand the scope to include other data as required and agreed with industry - Pilot the system across the full range of supply chains found in the UK Cereals & Oilseeds sector - Work with industry to drive system rollout across the UK. The core requirement is to build a fully functioning digital data hub for the UK Cereals and Oilseeds sector allowing data to be shared both up and down supply chains, including replacing the current paper grain passports in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. Beyond this the data hub must be flexible enough to capture additional data over and above the core passport data, as required by industry and allow it to be accessed by others in the supply chain.
