Summary of the contracting process

The Food Standards Agency (FSA) has completed the procurement process for the project titled "Imported Food Sampling, Analysis and Reporting." This initiative is part of the services industry focusing on research and development. Located in York, UK, the procurement method used was an open procedure, and while the project is now marked as complete, it included significant activities aimed at sampling and analysing imported food products to identify food safety risks. The tender was initiated on the 23rd of August 2021, with an end date for submissions on the 4th of October 2021. The first work package for this project is expected to have been completed by the 31st of March 2022.

This project presents a valuable opportunity for businesses in the food safety, analysis, and consultancy sectors, particularly those that specialise in research and development services. Companies that are well-suited to compete in this tender would be those equipped to conduct sampling, laboratory analysis, and reporting of food commodities, particularly those dealing with imported goods. Given the scope of the work, companies with strong logistical capabilities and expertise in food safety regulations would have a competitive advantage in this sector.
