## Summary

The procurement process concerns the provision of quarterly equine disease reports required by the Defra Network eTendering Portal, based in London, England. This engagement falls under the technical services category (CPV 71356000) and veterinary services (CPV 85200000) sectors. The tender is currently in the planning stage, with the submission of a planned procurement notice published on 4th March 2021. The contract period is set to start on 1st July 2021 and will continue until 31st May 2024. A future notice related to this opportunity is expected by 11th March 2021.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in veterinary services, data analysis, or disease surveillance sectors, particularly those with the capacity to source and analyse data from a broad network of laboratories. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to consider competing for this contract, as the process is designed to be accessible to them. Companies with experience in producing intelligence reports related to equine health and disease management would be particularly well-suited to respond to this requirement.

## Notice

APHA has a requirement for regular intelligence on diseases prevalent in the British equine population as part of its scanning surveillance to detect new and re-emerging animal disease threats. The supplier will be required to produce quarterly reports from quarter 3 of 2021 (01 July - 30 September) onwards on equine diseases detected across Great Britain in that quarter. The information forming the basis of the quarterly reports shall be sourced from as large a network of commercial and practice laboratories as possible. The quarterly reports shall include information on new and re-emerging equine disease, including both exotic and endemic diseases. The quarterly reports shall consist principally of "numerator data" supported by more detailed intelligence on disease outbreaks and commentary on possible bias and the representativeness of the data. The reports shall be produced within two (2) months of the end of the quarter being reported on.
