## Summary

The tender titled "Multi-layered model for POPs mass in different environmental compartments" has been published by the Defra Network eTendering Portal, situated in London, England. This procurement process falls under the category of research services and aims to enhance understanding of Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) emissions in the environment. The procurement method is an open procedure, and the tender period is set to close on 9th November 2018. The contract is expected to commence on 10th December 2018 and conclude by 29th March 2019.

This tender presents valuable opportunities for service providers in the environmental research sector, particularly those specialising in chemical regulation and environmental protection. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with expertise in research services, environmental monitoring, and remediation strategies would be well-positioned to compete for this contract. Engaging in this procurement could enable businesses to contribute significantly towards the development of effective regulatory tools and environmental initiatives in the UK.

## Notice

Following the UK referendum decision to leave the European Union, there is both a strong need to input to development of replacement UK chemical regulations, and an opportunity to develop more effective and bespoke approaches to environmental protection. In particular, Defra and the Environment Agency are focussing on developing better regulatory tools to deliver chemicals legislation requirements, and ensuring that environmental considerations are understood and incorporated appropriately into the UK regulatory response. This is directly relevant to the recently published Defra 25 Year Environment Plan (25 YEP), which highlights specific areas of focus as minimising the risk of chemical contamination in our water, and developing an early warning system for future chemicals of concern. In order to achieve this and expand our abilities in the future, Defra plans to target resource at selected activities that provide greatest progress to meeting these aims. A key area for this work plan, and the tendered project is development of our understanding of the fate of POPs emissions in the environment, and the key areas to target remediation.
