Market and Product Data for Metal and Alloy Commodities

Tender description

The Trade Remedies Authority (TRA) ("the customer") has a potential requirement for the provision of "Market and Product Data for Metal and Alloy Commodities". The full specification shall be provided with the contract documents, but it is expected to incorporate procuring a database on market data and production data on specific metals to assist with its investigations. The customer requires access to market prices for various raw metal inputs (e.g., aluminium ingots or iron ore for steel) as well as data to help calculate alloy prices (e.g., aluminium alloy prices to assist in calculating the cost of the conversion process). TRA investigations focus on goods classified under specific 6-, 8- or 10-digit commodity codes. The full list of the customer's desired requirements can be found attached to this notice. The customer will conduct supplier calls with all suppliers express a willingness to deliver this requirement. Please contact CommercialResearchandConsultancy@trade.gov.uk by 8th July 2022 if your organisation would like to participate. The customer is aware that the requirements are extensive and thus, they do not expect suppliers to meet all these requirements, but they are looking to discuss with suppliers what can be provided or whether a suite of tools may be better suited for the organisation.
