## Summary

The procurement process titled "Support for National Air Pollution Control Strategies 2018-2020" is being conducted by the Defra Network eTendering Portal. This project falls under the services category, specifically relating to natural resources management and conservation strategy planning. The tender period ended on 2nd March 2018, with the contract commencing on 2nd July 2018 and concluding on 30th June 2020. The procurement method chosen for this process is the open procedure, where suppliers are invited to submit their bids for contract opportunities.

Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to engage in this process. With a budget of approximately £560,000, companies that can provide evidence and impact assessment related to the UK's Clean Air Strategy and National Air Pollution Control Programme will find this procurement particularly suitable for growth and expansion.

## Notice

The UK has recently adopted ambitious targets to reduce emissions of five damaging air pollutants (ammonia, nitrogen oxides, non-methane volatile organic compounds, fine particulate matter and sulphur dioxide) by 2020 and 2030; aiming to cut early deaths from air pollution by half. The Government is developing a new Clean Air Strategy, setting out a work plan towards these goals, for consultation in 2018. The new reduction targets support the objectives of the international Gothenburg Protocol and the revised National Emission Ceilings Directive (NECD; (EU) 2016/2284). The Clean Air Strategy will inform the development of the UK National Air Pollution Control Programme (NAPCP, Article 6 of the NECD), which will lay out the detail of how the UK will meet legally binding emission targets for each pollutant. The NAPCP will be established in 2019. The aim of this framework agreement is to establish a network of suppliers for the provision of evidence to inform the development and impact assessment of a range of policies and measures in support of the Clean Air Strategy and the NAPCP. The work will be managed on a 'call-off' basis, agreeing specific work items, costs and timescales as needs arise.
