Description

PRELIMINARY MARKET ENGAGEMENT (PME) NOTIFICATION - THE TENDER DOCUMENTATION IS NOT YET AVAILABLE. However, interest (Expressions of interest) can be registered here (if not already completed), and please refer to the UK2: Preliminary market engagement notice for further details on the Engagement process being undertaken (see 'https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/014030-2025', although please note that the Engagement period has now passed, but the Expression of interest window is being kept open for any new Expressions of interest to be captured). PLEASE ACCESS THE MESSAGES AREA/SECTION ON THE ACTIVITY DASHBOARD (ONCE AN EXPRESSION OF INTEREST HAS BEEN COMPLETED) FOR ANY FURTHER COMMUNICATIONS FOR THIS PRELIMINARY MARKET ENGAGEMENT. Note: If you are unable to complete an Expression of interest, this is likely to be due to this having already been completed/registered. Please check your Activities area in this case (or otherwise contact Proactis Supplier Support for any other system related questions). And in case of any further queries/questions on this PME/Opportunity, these MUST be received via the Messages area/section of this eProcurement Portal only (as also stated below). The framework provides access to a Managed Service Provider (MSP) for the sourcing, administration and management of customers' training requirements. The duration of the framework agreement is expected to be for 24 months, with the option to extend for up to a further 24 months. The total estimated value stated includes the option period. It is anticipated that suppliers that have taken part in the preliminary market engagement will not be put at an unfair advantage when bidding for this framework. For the avoidance of doubt, those not participating in the engagement piece will still be able to tender for the framework and it will not mean they are excluded from tendering. A record of the information shared and received as part of the preliminary market engagement will be kept ensuring that the information gathered is considered in the procurement. An anonymised summary of the information/outcomes will also be shared with other parties and used to help ensure that participating suppliers are not unfairly advantaged. Note: for any questions relating to the operation of the Portal itself, ProContract, these should be submitted to Proactis, and the following links (URL's) can be used for this for supplier support and system technical queries: https://www.proactis.com/uk/support-login/ or via https://suppliersupport.proactisservicedesk.com/. OTHERWISE, ANY QUESTIONS RELATING TO THIS PME SHOULD BE SUBMITTED TO ESPO by accessing the Messages area/section once an Expression of interest has been completed.
