## Summary

The Public Procurement process is managed by the Defra Network eTendering Portal, geared towards delivering annual agricultural greenhouse gas and ammonia inventories. The tender, titled "Delivering Agricultural Greenhouse Gas and Ammonia Inventories and Projection", falls within the services category of research and development, specifically designed to help meet UK commitments under international climate agreements. The contract period commenced on 4th September 2017 and is set to conclude on 30th August 2022. The tender process employed an open procedure, with the submission deadline having been 29th June 2017.

This opportunity is well-suited for businesses specialising in environmental consultancy, climate data analysis, and agricultural research. Companies that can provide innovative methodologies for emissions inventories are particularly encouraged to engage, especially those that qualify as small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) or voluntary community sector enterprises (VCSEs). By participating in this tender, businesses have the potential to collaborate with key stakeholders like the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) and improve their visibility within the climate service industry.

## Notice

As part of the UK government's commitments under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and the UK Climate Change Act, the Authority produces an annual inventory of agricultural greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Similar obligations exist for the production of an annual inventory of ammonia emissions under the UNECE Convention on Long-Range Transboundary Air Pollution. This project will help the Authority meet these obligations. Estimates of agricultural emissions are prepared for the Authority and shared with BEIS as part of the overall emissions reporting for the whole UK economy. Contractor(s) will work closely with the Authority, BEIS, Ricardo Energy & Environment, and the UK's Inventory Agency to ensure delivery of the Project. This project will deliver the annual inventories of ammonia and GHGs to the Authority on a timely basis as detailed in Section 4 of this specification. The project will also deliver annually updates projections of emissions. The project will compile the GHG using the UKs country specific agricultural inventory model approach developed under the GHG R&D Platform. Emissions estimates will be generated using the inventory calculations model developed under project SCF0102. Annual estimates of ammonia emissions will be produced from the same model. Details of the model are available from the authority on request. Additional information: Please note that Defra procurement uses e-tendering, provided by Bravosolutions.
