Objectives and description
The
European Food Safety Authority has published a call for tenders for the
“Support to national dietary surveys in compliance with the EU menu
methodology (7th support) — ‘the adults' survey’, including subjects
from 10 to 74 years old” - OC/EFSA/DATA/2017/01.
In
December 2014, EFSA published the guidance on the EU Menu methodology.
This guidance was based on the 2009 EFSA guidance, two EU Menu
feasibility pilot studies and two methodological projects, and its aim
is to cover the EU Menu methodology and therefore facilitate the
collection of more harmonised food consumption data from all European
Union Member States by the year 2020. It
provides recommendations for the collection of more harmonised food
consumption data among the EU Member States for use in dietary exposure
assessments of food-borne hazards and nutrient intake estimations.
The aim of this procurement procedure is to award
direct service contracts to organizations from EU Member States,
Norway, Iceland, Switzerland, FYROM, Albania, Montenegro, Serbia, Bosnia
and Herzegovina and Liechtenstein, which have a governmental mandate to
carry out a dietary survey at national level in the period from 2017 to
2022 or 2018 to 2023 and a national dietary survey has not been funded
as part of the EU MENU process or carried out within the country in the
last 5 years for the planned target group (considering as reference date
the beginning of the field work). Under the resulting contract(s) the
contractor(s) should either adapt or develop the methodology to be used
in these surveys according to the EFSA guidance on the EU Menu
methodology.
Eligible participants - Minimum conditions
Natural and legal persons
from one of the EU Member States and all natural and legal persons in a
third country which has a special agreement with the European Union in

The total duration of the tasks is 54 months.
