Validation of Biosafety

The Agricultural Research Council is inviting quotations for a service it labels validation of biosafety. That title is the whole of the substance supplied. There is no statement of the site, the organism, the product or the process concerned, no standard or framework against which validation would be performed, and no way from this material to tell whether the assignment concerns a laboratory, a field trial or a regulatory submission. The entry is classified as a service within the agriculture sector and is marked as a re-advertisement, so it has been issued on a previous occasion. A supplier reading it has only the one line to judge whether the work falls inside its competence.
