Description
AHDB are seeking a supplier to validate data entered into the Farmbench benchmarking programme. Farmbench is AHDB's new, cross sector benchmarking programme, open for use by farmers and their advisers across the UK. The programme allows farmers to enter data and anonymously compare their business performance to regional and national average datasets. The programme currently covers combinable crop, potato and beef and lamb enterprises. It will be extended to cover dairy and sugar beet enterprises during the second half of 2018.
Data can be entered by farmers, their advisers (e.g. consultants, agronomists and vets) and AHDB staff. Once complete, the supplier will validate datasets for completeness and accuracy. This is important to ensure that datasets are free from errors and omissions. This is important for two main reasons:
1) It provides confidence to farmers that their individual reports are accurate, which is important when business changing decisions could be taken based on Farmbench data. 2) It provides confidence to industry that datasets admitted to form the benchmark averages are robust and reliable.
The supplier will be validating physical and financial data across the sectors listed above, and a degree of familiarity with agricultural production systems and physical and financial data will be required.
The validation work has a seasonal nature with the busiest period running from November to June.
Additional information: If you are interested in this opportunity, please email Derek Carless at [email protected] You will be sent the specification which will contain further details. Start date: 1 April 2018 Finish date: 31 July 2019 (16 months, with an option to extend by 12 months to 31 July 2020)
