A specialised software tool is required to undertake exposure assessments for food safety risk assessment. The tool must be capable of using UK consumption data from dietary surveys such as NDNS and DNSIYC, to undertake a range of consumption and exposure assessments. Throughout the duration of the contract, reliable technical support and training for FSA staff will also be required.
