## About this tender

\*\*\*\*The full tender opportunity is advertised on [capitalesourcing.com\*\*\*\*the](https://www.capitalesourcing.com%2A%2A%2A%2AThe) London Borough of Hillingdon is responsible for overseeing imported food and feed controls at its Imported Food Office located at London Heathrow Airport. European Community legislation requires imports of certain food and feed products to be introduced into the United Kingdom only via approved inspection facilities. The Imported Food Office at London Heathrow Airport is an approved inspection facility for both imports of products of animal origin, and those not of animal origin.

2.2 The London Borough of Hillingdon are looking for a supplier or suppliers that can analyse imports of feed and food for the following contaminants:

- Pesticide residues
- Caesium-134 and Caesium-137
- Microbiological contaminants
- Other Miscellaneous
- All of the above

We would like to invite quotations from supplier(s) that can provide the required analysis for any or all of the above contaminants. Please indicate in your tender proposal what analyses you are able to provide.

The majority of imports that are examined by London Borough of Hillingdon Imported Food Officers are fresh, highly perishable products. All samples taken are formal official control samples. The samples taken fall into two categories:

- Those where legislation requires the consignment to be detained pending the results of analysis. An expedited turnaround time is therefore required;
- Those samples taken as part of surveillance activities. The consignment is not detained pending the results of sampling. These samples are not time critical, and an expedited turnaround time is not required.
