TfL, at any time through this market engagement process and, at its sole discretion, may enter into discussions with respondents to this PIN. Feedback from respondents will assist TfL in understanding the current supply market considerations for the SITS Predictive System and inform the continued development of the procurement strategy for any potential future contract(s).

TfL reserves the right to make changes to this advertisement without notice and without reason at any time. Additional information: TfL will manage the early market engagement process in an open and transparent manner to maximise the possible benefits. Response or non-response of the MSQ will not preclude or disadvantage/advantage any involvement in any potential future procurement activity. However, direct or indirect canvassing of any TfL employee or agent concerning this requirement, or any attempt to procure information from any TfL employee or agent concerning this Prior Information Notice outside of the formal process described in this document may result in disqualification from consideration for any future procurement activity. This Prior Information Notice is issued solely for the purpose of conducting a market engagement exercise and does not constitute any commitment by TfL to undertake any public procurement exercise in the future. TfL will not enter into a contract based solely on the responses to this Prior Information Notice and no information contained in this document or in any communication made between TfL and any interested party in connection with this shall be relied upon as constituting a contract, agreement or representation that any contract shall be offered. TfL is under no obligation to follow up this market engagement exercise in any way or with any interested parties.
