## Summary

The Agricultural Valuation Services Framework Agreement, initiated on 1st February 2026 by the Animal and Plant Health Agency (APHA), manages agricultural valuation services from 2026 to 2034 across the UK. The procurement process, conducted via an open procedure, has been completed and awards have been issued to suppliers under a framework agreement. This agreement will serve the Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs (Defra), APHA, Welsh Government, and Scottish Government, ensuring uniform valuation services are available across these regions. The process culminated in February 2026, focusing on agricultural services, specifically valuating livestock, crops, and assets, with an overarching goal of supporting disease control through fair compensation to affected stakeholders.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses in the agricultural consultancy and valuation sector, focusing on those capable of delivering high-quality professional valuation services for livestock, crops, and agricultural assets. The framework provisions cater to various valuation needs through segmented lots, welcoming routine, expert, and monitor valuers, thus providing diverse entry points for experienced firms. The tender framework encourages participation from small to medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), aligning with government objectives to foster inclusive economic growth and sector resilience.
