Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs (Defra) has concluded the public procurement process titled "RDE806 Reviewing the opportunities for Earth Observation data sets to inform Def." This tender, related to research and development consultancy services, is part of a broader initiative to develop a national soil health indicator by 2028. The procurement utilized a selective method through a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract was awarded on 15th July 2025 to RSK ADAS Limited, and covers regions including the UK, Channel Islands, British Overseas Territories, and beyond. The contract, valued at £78,237, commenced on 15th July 2025 and will run until 28th February 2026. The procurement process is now at the award stage and was marked complete before the tender's closing date on 14th July 2025.

This tender presents key opportunities for businesses involved in innovative monitoring and related technology sectors, particularly those capable of providing specialised consultancy services. While the procurement method was selective, suggesting a pre-approval process, companies with a relevant framework can leverage such opportunities to enhance their portfolio and secure government contracts. Organisations well-suited for future similar tenders include those with expertise in data analysis, environmental monitoring, and agricultural consultancy, especially larger enterprises given the scale of operations involved with projects under Defra's jurisdiction.
