Production and Supply of Poultry Rate Cards

Award outcome

Description

The Animal and Plant Health Agency (APHA) and Department of Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs (DAERA) are seeking to engage a supplier to produce and supply specified Poultry Rate Cards on a regular basis to reflect the market value of breeding, laying and meat production birds at various stages in their lifecycle, including consideration of age in days/weeks. The Poultry Rate Cards may be used where the Authority is required to or chooses to pay compensation for poultry or other captive birds. The successful Tenderer will be appointed to supply the specified Poultry Rate Cards (PRCs) for an initial 4-year period, with the option to extend the Contract for a further period of up to a maximum of 24 months. This will be subject to separate budget approval and at the discretion of the Contracting Body. There are three elements to the requirement: The successful Supplier shall deliver: • Requirement 1: Provide regular review and updates as required, of a variety of PRCs at specified intervals (typically 5 times a year); and • Requirement 2: Conduct bespoke valuations for different bird types/production systems, as required by the Buyer. If a bespoke PRC is commissioned, the Buyer may request these PRCs are then added to the regular updates and a Contract Change Notice (CCN) would be agreed between the Buyer and the Supplier as appropriate; and • Requirement 3: Provide expert advice, as required. The potential supplier will need to have and maintain knowledge of the United Kingdom poultry and game rearing industry, including conditions in Northern Ireland.
