The Environmental Training Advice and Facilitation Framework (ETAFF) is a flexible tool used by NE and other Defra family bodies to buy in farm and land management advice services under contract from vetted and approved advice suppliers.
The Environmental Contracted Services (ECS) Team run the operation of the Framework on behalf of Defra, (supported by Defra Group Commercial) and lead on the procurement of the contracted advice program. The team currently contract in advice to support farmers but the ETAF Framework itself has scope to deliver a broader program of support.
The ECS team is part of National Operations and dispersed around the country. The team is comprised of senior contract managers, contract managers and a claims team, all supported by a senior officer and operations manager. They work closely with the commissioning team's key staff and the advice suppliers themselves.
The claims officers within the ECS team process claims for payment from suppliers in accordance with the framework requirements, including raising purchase orders and providing updates for contract managers and suppliers.
