## Summary

The Food Standards Agency (FSA) is currently inviting tenders for the project titled "FS101236 - Regulatory Mapping Exercise," which aims to evaluate existing delivery and operating models related to official controls in the food industry. This contract falls under the services category, specifically within research and development consultancy services. The tender period is set to close on 24 September 2020, and the contract is expected to commence on 20 November 2020, lasting until 20 May 2021. The procurement method is an open procedure, designed for both small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations. The delivery addresses span the British Overseas Territories, the Channel Islands, Europe, the Isle of Man, and the United Kingdom.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in research and development, particularly those with expertise in regulatory frameworks and consultancy services. Companies that specialise in policy analysis, impact assessment, or the design and execution of research could find this tender particularly relevant. By participating in this tender, businesses can not only secure a contractual relationship with a key government agency but also contribute to shaping the future of food regulation in the UK, thereby fostering growth and innovation within their own operations.

## Notice

Across the FSA we are reviewing the existing delivery and operating models that cover the local authority (LA) and the FSA's delivery of official controls. We anticipate that these reviews will lead to proposed changes to the existing operating and delivery models and we will need to understand the potential impacts of any changes so they can be evaluated before being implemented. To better understand these potential impacts, we are commissioning this research to map the multiple regulatory aspects that exists from policy development through to the front-line delivery and enforcement of official controls. Without this information it is not possible to determine the impact of any changes or interventions across the entire regulatory landscape/process, which is necessary if regulation is to remain agile and flexible in response to changes in the profile of Food Business Operators (FBOs) and how they operate.
