Published requirement description

The actuarial advisory services are in respect of two legacy Defined Benefit pension schemes, distinct from the requirements of the schemes themselves which appoint their own actuary.

AHDB is the sponsoring employer of the Home-Grown Cereals Authority Pension Plan (“HGCA Plan”) and the Meat and Livestock Commission Pension Scheme (“MLC Scheme”).

The procurement was split into two Lots:

  • Lot 1 – Actuarial Advice: the provision of actuarial advice on funding, accounting, strategy and related services in respect of the HGCA Plan and the MLC Pension Scheme
  • Lot 2 – IAS19 Calculation: to provide AHDB with IAS19 Calculations (or such calculations as are required under the prevailing pensions accounting legislation) for the MLC Pension Scheme only.
  • Recurrence: 01/01/2023
