## Summary

The Food Standards Agency is inviting tenders for a project titled "FS431079 Assessing the detriment associated with AMR genes and their combinations in food chain risk assessments." This procurement, categorized under research and development services, is open for submissions until 20th September 2022. The contract is expected to commence on 1st December 2022 and conclude by 30th September 2023. The tender is part of an open procedure process and caters to delivery addresses across the United Kingdom and other territories.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in research and consultancy services, particularly those specialising in food safety and antimicrobial resistance. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to participate, as the project seeks to leverage scientific evidence to inform risk assessments in the food industry. This initiative not only fosters a collaborative approach to addressing important public health issues but also positions participating firms as key contributors to evolving regulatory frameworks.

## Notice

Tenders are invited to carry out a review of the available scientific evidence on the direct and indirect detriment associated with the presence of AMR genes and their combination in the food chain. In addition to evidence in the literature, expert elicitation should be considered where important gaps in knowledge are identified. It is anticipated that the data gathered will be used to develop an updatable relational database which will allow the FSA to assess the potential detriment of AMR genes in bacteria in food as part of their AMR risk assessments.
