Payment obligations depend on the applicable regime and contract. Consult the official documents.
Coverage: 50 active published awards; 2 bid reports (which may be per lot). Supplier values exclude multi-supplier awards, frameworks and DPS, and use GBP only. They are published award values, not payments. Published-to-award variance compares single-lot, single-award, single-supplier GBP procedures with explicitly non-framework/non-DPS status; increases remain in the average. Unpublished data stays unknown. Awarded suppliers are winners, not all bidders.

What is being bought
AHDB is considering its future procurement approach for the Recommended Lists Variety Trials programme and is undertaking preliminary market engagement with existing and potential suppliers in relation to any future procurement of these services.

Please note that this questionnaire is for market research purposes only. Responses will not be used to evaluate future tenders and do not commit AHDB to any particular procurement approach. Please email procurement@ahdb.org.uk to receive the questionnaire.
