The procurement is classified under the "Legal advisory and information services" industry category.

This tender presents opportunities for businesses specialising in legal advisory services, particularly those that provide communication and engagement support for traders preparing for post-Brexit changes. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) would be well-suited to compete for this contract, as their agility and local knowledge are valuable assets in delivering the necessary activities effectively for the trading community in the UK and beyond.

## Notice

The exports programme has responsibility for ensuring traders (those who export goods) are ready for the changes at the end of the transition period. This includes traders who export goods from Great Britain to Northern Ireland and Great Britain to Europe. As part of this trader readiness workstream there are several communications and engagement activities that need to be undertaken including a trader readiness campaign with the first phase starting in August/September. We require support to deliver these activities. Additional information: Please note that Defra procurement uses an E-tendering system for Procurement activities. This is currently provided by Bravo Solutions.
