Technical inspection and testing services. Laboratory services. HMRC has an on-going requirement for a Forensic Analysis Service to support investigations in all operational areas throughout the UK mainland and Northern Ireland. The Enforcement and Compliance Group within HMRC is responsible for the investigation of major smuggling and fraud and any international elements of these crimes. During the course of investigations, materials and other evidence may be collected requiring forensic examination that will contribute to the intelligence relating to the case. In order to support these investigations and to provide evidence for production in court, access to forensic science is required, including scientific advice on the types of evidence that may be suitable for this purpose and the correct method for collecting, preserving and examining it. HMRC require a forensic analysis service that will support investigations in all operational areas. HMRC use a HMRC instance of SAP Ariba Sourcing Pro to facilitate the procurement process. Economic operators wishing to express and interest in this opportunity must do so by completing the necessary online questionnaire using SAP Ariba (a suppliers guide is available on the HMRC website: [hmrc.gov.uk/about/supplying.htm](https://www.hmrc.gov.uk/about/supplying.htm)). Economic operators who have used HMRCs instance of SAP Ariba previously will be registered as part of the HMRC Ariba Supplier Network and you should access the system to obtain your organisations account ID number. Contact details on the system should be checked and, where necessary, additional users added to help avoid multiple registrations for the same organisation. Previously registered users having difficulty recovering their account ID number or identifying users within their organisation should email HMRC SAP Ariba Support () for assistance. Economic operators using HMRCs instance of SAP Ariba for the first time, including suppliers who are registered on the wider SAP Ariba supplier network, will need to register at [hmrc.supplier-eu.ariba.com/ad/register/SSOActions](http://hmrc.supplier-eu.ariba.com/ad/register/SSOActions?type=full). As part of the registration process you will receive a system generated email asking you to activate your SAP Ariba account by verifying your email address. Once you have completed the activation process, you will receive a further email by return confirming the 'registration process is now complete' and providing you with 'your organisations account ID' number. If an email response from HMRC is not received with one working day of your request, please re-contact HMRC SAP Ariba Support (after first checking your spam in-box) notifying non-receipt and confirming when your registration request for access was first made.
