## Summary

The procurement process, initiated by the Defra Network eTendering Portal, is for the acquisition of UK self-reported consumer food and drink expenditure data. This contract falls under the research and development services category, specifically aimed at understanding purchasing trends influenced by EU-Exit. The tender process concluded on 15 March 2019, with an awarded contract valued at £33,933, covering a contract period from 21 March 2019 to 6 May 2019. This was executed through a direct procurement method, with a single tender action carried out below the threshold.

This contract presents opportunities for businesses, particularly those with expertise in market research, data analysis, and consultancy services within the agri-food sector. Companies capable of providing insights into consumer behaviour and purchasing trends would be well-positioned to compete in future tenders. The nature of this procurement indicates that larger firms may be favoured, but innovative and capable smaller enterprises may also be able to participate as subcontractors or through joint ventures to meet the requirements outlined by Defra.

## Notice

The agri-food chain analysis team need to be able to monitor trends in households purchasing in order to assess changes in purchasing decisions as a result of EU-Exit, including a no-deal. The analysis of this information will inform short and medium term policy development including no-deal response interventions.
