Tender Description
The National Livestock Identification System (NLIS) currently utilises electronic identification devices (EID) that contain a low frequency (LF) half duplex (HDX) microchip component. EID is the basis for individual animal identification in line with the NLIS RFID Standards, the International Committee for Animal Recording (ICAR) accreditation and international standards.
Ultra-High Frequency (UHF) is an alternative technology to a LF HDX that has been identified as a possible alternative technology for EID in the NLIS. UHF has been adapted for use in the livestock industry across the world and is currently used in a range of industries. A recent sheep track and trace project assessed and identified that UHF EID is a promising technology option that could be used for traceability. The purpose of this project is to undertake a study to determine if UHF is a feasible technology to implement for use in the NLIS.
ISC is currently seeking responses from suitably skilled applicants or consultants to address the Terms of reference.
All proposals must be received by 5pm AEDT on Friday 2 December 2022.
