Summary of the contracting process

The Food Standards Agency (FSA) has issued an update on the contract "FSA Delivered Official Controls in England and Wales," under tender ID FS101227. This contract pertains to veterinary services classified under the CPV code 85200000 and encompasses the provision of contract Official Veterinarians (cOV) and contract Official Auxiliaries (cOA) to perform official controls in FSA-approved meat establishments and other related duties. The contract, with an active status since 30th March 2020, will continue until 31st March 2025. The awarded contract, valued at £170,066,478.00, involves the supplier Eville and Jones (GB) Ltd. The procurement process follows Directive 2014/24/EU due to the critical nature of the services provided and has undergone several updates, the latest being a significant variation in August 2024.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses involved in veterinary services, particularly those specialising in regulatory compliance and food safety within meat processing establishments. Small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with experience in government contracting, or larger firms like the current supplier Eville and Jones (GB) Ltd, may find this a valuable chance to expand their portfolios and secure a long-term, high-value contract. Companies capable of supplying skilled veterinary professionals and auxiliary staff to support official controls will be well-suited to compete in this ongoing and critical service provision.
