Request for Proposal: Almond industry innovation and adoption program
Horticulture Innovation Australia (Hort Innovation) is a not-for-profit, grower-owned Research and Development Corporation (RDC) for Australia’s $13.2 billion horticulture industry. Hort Innovation invests around $110 million in research and development (R&D) and marketing programs annually to provide benefit to industry and the wider community.
Hort Innovation is seeking a suitably qualified, experienced and capable delivery partner for the project: Almond industry innovation and adoption program (AL19001).
The objectives of the services being sought are to assist Hort Innovation:
• Deliver national industry development and extension services in a strategic and coordinated manner with a team of appropriately skilled and respected staff and partners.
• Deliver industry development and extension activities that result in an informed industry which has the necessary tools (technologies and management practices) and capacity (knowledge and skills) to manage on-farm risks from a production and biosecurity perspective and meet market requirements and consumer expectations. This will involve:
o Improving the reach of the almond R&D program
o Creating improved industry capabilities for adoption and innovation from levy funded R&D outputs
o Driving and monitoring the adoption of levy funded R&D outputs by Australian almond businesses
• Facilitate the feedback loop between growers and researchers to ensure that R&D outputs are relevant and accessible to end users, and that industry R&D gaps/needs are reported to Hort Innovation. In particular this project must work closely with the Almond industry communications program (AL18001).
Hort Innovation has prepared a Request for Proposal (RFP) document that provides background information, outlines the scope of services, the procurement process and the information required from interested parties. The RFP may be downloaded from www.tenders.net (you will need to be a member of tenders.net to access this information).
