This market research service aims to provide an economic assessment of the red meat sectors (Beef, Lamb, and Pork) in England and Great Britain. The successful tenderer will deliver a comprehensive report detailing the economic contributions across the supply chain, considering historical data over the past ten years. The tender was published on 2nd October 2024, with submissions due by 1st November 2024, and the project is expected to be completed by 28th February 2025. The procurement stage is at the award stage, with Pareto Consulting being awarded the contract worth £18,900. The contract period runs from 11th November 2024 through 28th February 2025. This tender offers substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in economic analysis and market research, particularly those with experience in agricultural or supply chain assessments. The project will provide an in-depth understanding of the red meat supply chain's economic impact, making it well-suited for SMEs. Participating in this project could provide significant visibility and credibility for firms looking to expand their portfolio in public sector contracts and related markets. Companies that can demonstrate robust methodologies and credible economic assessments will be well-positioned to compete. ## Notice Background / Aims: The aim of this report is to provide our Levy Payers with a clear economic assessment of the red meat (Beef, Lamb and Pork) sectors both at an England and GB level from birth through to point of sale at retail, with both direct and indirect economic contributions accounted for. Aims: -To calculate the economic value of the full red meat supply chain at an England and GB level, sub divided by the Beef, Lamb and Pork sectors. -Subdivide the value attributed to the livestock specifically, as well as the total economic contributions from all secondary sources. -Ability to capture and quantify the employment structures and the value driven from these across the supply chain. Service Requirement: The aim of this project is to deliver a clear and well structure report, providing an overall economic value for both the total red meat category and broken down per sector (Beef, Lamb and Pork). This economic figure should recognise both direct and indirect contributions (the role of feed merchants, vets, machinery dealerships, processing, distribution etc). The successful tender will be expected to deliver a robust and credible methodology for creating and attributing these costs, recognising key historical movements over the last 10 years. We'd expect this report to be completed by the 28th February 2025. Similar workstreams would include reports such as those linked below within this notice. Structure / Format of Submission: The report should include: - Overall economic value of the red meat sector - Breakdown of key values per species (Beef, Lamb, Pork) - A split of costs based on both an England only and GB basis - Breakdown of key contributing factors - The value of the livestock themselves - Employment structures across the supply chain -> Direct employment ->Employment supported in other sectors Evaluation and Award of Contract: Please see criteria attached.
