The NDNS is a rolling programme of surveys designed to assess the diet, nutrient intake and nutritional status of the general population of the UK. The NDNS is a co funded by the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) Office for Health Improvement and Disparities (OHID) and FSA. This project is to investigate potential changes to the methodology used in the NDNS, to optimize the data collected for use in exposure assessment for food safety risk assessment, while ensuring the survey continues to meet the requirements of other stakeholders. ## Lots (1) ### Lot 1: Untitled lot - **Lot id:** `1` - **Status:** complete - **CPV codes:** 73200000 ## Awards & Winning Suppliers (1) - **Award:** 1 (active) - Supplier(s): **Cambridge University Technical Services Limited** - Supplier identifiers: `GB-FTS-93033` - Value: £49,551 † (exc.
