Notice Information

Notice Title

Hard Facilities Management Building Fabric and/or Mechanical and Electrical Servicing/Repairs ***Soft Market Testing***

Notice Description

Bristol City Council, is at an early stage in development of its proposals but prior to formulating any formal procurement opportunity, seeks input from the market as to what might be the most potentially attractive way of packaging and scoping any future procurement opportunity. This exercise will also provide an opportunity for BCC to obtain insight into how potential providers might approach the delivery of the service in question. It also gives useful early insight into the likely level of interest in a proposed project from that market. Potential bidders will not be prejudiced by any response or failure to respond to the soft market testing. Potential bidders must also note that a response does not guarantee an invitation to participate in this or any future procurement that Bristol City Council may conduct, nor that Bristol City Council will procure any such supply and services or BCC accepts any proposals offered. Any procurement of the supply and services by Bristol City Council will be carried out strictly in accordance with the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. Any interested provider should complete the excel document and return via ProContract before the deadline of 27th October at 12pm.
