## Summary

The Health & Safety Executive (HSE) has initiated an open procedure tender for the project titled "THE PROVISION OF A REVIEW OF PREFERENTIAL FLOW MODELS AND GROUNDWATER LEACHING RISK FOR PESTICIDES". This service-based tender falls under the industry category of Pollution tracking and monitoring and rehabilitation (CPV code 90730000) and covers regions across England, Scotland, and Wales. The procurement process is currently at the Tender stage, with key dates including the publication date of 19 December 2024, a deadline for submissions on 28 January 2025 at 13:00, and the contract period running from 17 February 2025 to 16 November 2025. The total value of the contract is £25,000 GBP.

This tender presents significant opportunities for business growth, specifically for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialised in environmental research, pollution tracking, and pesticide risk assessment technologies. The project aims to reassess and propose methods for the UK's regulatory exposure assessments concerning pesticides and groundwater. Given the open procurement method, businesses with expertise in developing robust environmental models and assessments are well-suited to compete, providing them with a platform to demonstrate their capabilities and potentially secure government contracts. Registration for tender document access is available free of charge via the HSE In-Tend supplier e-procurement portal.
