Description

AWARDED - The aim of this procurement is to provide AHDB with impact assessment analysis that will quantify, assess and analyse the impact of a UK/US trade deal and future trade deals.
Huge uncertainty hangs over the industry while the UK negotiates its departure from the EU, the most immediate and pressing challenge being to determine what relationship might be entered into in terms of access to the EU single market.
For this service contract, AHDB are seeking a three year contract with the successful applicant. AHDB intend to examine approximately two trade deals per year, so six in total, as well as develop the ability to run and rerun different scenarios as negotiations with each trade agreement progress. AHDB would aim to work closely with the successful applicant to both sketch out the trade deal scenarios and to develop in house expertise on running the modelling work itself.
