On-Farm Kill & Carcase Collection Open Framework Agreement

This is a re-procurement of the Animal and Plant Health Agency’s existing On-Farm Kill & Carcase Collection Framework Agreement and is expected to be launched in September 2026 with a view to establish an eight (8)-year open framework series. The On-Farm Kill & Carcase Collection framework will seek the appointment of a range of providers who can deliver various services, across different Lots, that include; handling, culling, removal of carcase(s) and provision of post mortem examination facilities (where required), and carcase disposal services for farmed livestock, primarily for TB control purposes. Services may be required to be delivered at very short notice (within six (6) to twelve (12) hours). The resulting framework is to be open for use by: Defra, APHA, Welsh Government & Scottish Government.
