Opportunity overview

Within DAERA the Veterinary Service Animal Health Group has an Identification,Registration and Movement (IRM) Branch that monitors compliance with the legislative requirements for animal identification and movement recording. The Cattle Identification (Notification of Births, Deaths and Movements) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1999 require herd Keepers to notify the movement of animals on to and off their farms. To facilitate this DAERA provides movement notification documentation for the use of the Keepers concerned. IRM Branch determines the need for replacement stocks by monitoring the usage of notification documents and ordering sufficient stocks to support the continued operation of that system. Please see CFT documents for full details of the requirements.

Financial Terms
For further details on invoicing procedures please see : https://www.finance-ni.gov.uk/ar ticles/account-ni-good-invoicing-practice Contract Value The estimated value figure indicated in the Scope Section represents an overall estimated contract value. This value reflects the potential scale of the contract and takes into account potential optional extension periods and the uptake of potential optional services as detailed in the tender documents. This figure does not however take into account the application of indexation or increases to charges due to increases in the Real Living Wage. Neither CPD nor the contracting Authority can provide any guarantee as to the level of business under this contract. The Contracting Authority does not bind itself to accept the lowest or any tender. Suppliers remain responsible for all costs and expenses incurred by them or by any third party acting under instructions from the Supplier in connection with taking part in this procurement process regardless of whether such costs arise as a consequence, directly or indirectly of any amendments made to the procurement documents by the Contracting Authority at any time. No legally binding contract shall arise (and a Supplier shall have no legitimate expectation that a contract will be entered into) until such time as entry into the Contract has been confirmed by the Contracting Authority.
