## Summary

The procurement process involves the Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs (DEFRA) acting on behalf of the Animal and Plant Health Agency (APHA) to recruit a temporary Senior Veterinary Inspector (SVI) at their Aston Down office in the South West of the United Kingdom. This procurement was completed with a total contract value of £12,100, and the contract period was from 12th September 2016 to 25th November 2016. The procurement method used was a selective restricted procedure, and the tender period ended on 7th September 2016.

This contracting opportunity may foster business growth, particularly for organisations specialising in veterinary services. Companies with experience in providing veterinary professionals and a proven track record in similar roles would be well-positioned to compete. The involvement of a large corporation like Xperior Farm Health Limited in the awarded contract indicates a preference for established suppliers in this sector, which could be a strategic consideration for potential bidders aiming to expand their operations in public procurement.
