    Brief

    The Food Standards Agency is seeking suppliers to provide chemical testing services in Northern Ireland. This requirement arises from the UK's exit from the European Union, which necessitates compliance with EU regulations regarding official controls. Specifically, under the Windsor Framework, Northern Ireland must have its own designated National Reference Laboratories (NRLs) that are located in EU member states or the European Economic Area (EEA). These NRLs cannot be situated within the UK, including Northern Ireland. Suppliers interested in this opportunity should be prepared to meet these regulatory requirements and provide the necessary testing services. The contract value is approximately £156,491.52, and the deadline for submissions is October 1, 2025.
