## Summary

The Agriculture and Horticulture Development Board (AHDB) has completed a public procurement process to award a contract for the provision of "2023-660 Cereals & Oilseeds crop intentions, condition and progress reporting". Classified under market research services (CPV code 79310000), the contract is designed to inform stakeholders about cereals and oilseeds crop development across different stages, including planting intentions and harvest progress. This tender was conducted using an open procedure, suitable for SMEs, covering a geographic scope that includes the United Kingdom and beyond. The procurement stage is at 'award', with an active contract awarded on 3rd June 2024, effective from 1st July 2024 until 30th June 2025. The total contract value is £480,000 GBP.

This procurement represents a significant opportunity for businesses in the agricultural data services sector to engage with industry stakeholders and enhance their operations and market reach. With AHDB sourcing data on crop developments from a network of independent agronomists, businesses specialising in agricultural research, data provision, and reporting are well-suited to compete in similar tenders. The direct involvement of companies like The Andersons Centre and RSK ADAS Limited, both of which are SMEs, demonstrates AHDB's openness to working with smaller enterprises, creating valuable avenues for businesses looking to expand into or strengthen their presence in agricultural consultancy and market intelligence services.
