## Summary

The procurement process initiated by the Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs (DEFRA) focuses on understanding the impact of 'regenerative agriculture' practices on peat soils. Classified under the industry category of research and development consultancy services, this contract is valued at £108,363 and spans from 23rd June 2025 to 16th March 2026. The procurement stage has reached the award phase, with the contract awarded to RSK ADAS Limited. This contract operates on a selective procurement method, specifically as a call-off from a framework agreement, and includes areas such as the British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, the Isle of Man, Europe, the UK, and the Rest of the World. Key dates include the tender period end on 22nd June 2025.

This contract presents significant opportunities for businesses specializing in research and development consultancy, particularly those with experience in environmental services and sustainable agricultural practices. However, this opportunity is best suited for larger organisations given the process's selective nature and the specified procurement method that tends to favour well-established entities with the capability to undertake extensive research projects. Businesses looking to expand their footprint within DEFRA’s procurement framework or seeking to enhance their credentials in agricultural sustainability would find this tender especially beneficial for growth and development.
