Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Teignbridge District Council is conducting a Soft Market Test titled "Asset Management System Convergence". This procurement is focused on software implementation services and software supply services within the IT industry. The engagement is currently in the planning stage, with a key milestone for feedback due by 30th September 2019. The project aims to consolidate various asset management systems across three councils located in the South West of the United Kingdom, and interested parties are encouraged to register on the authority's electronic tendering system to access relevant procurement documents.

This Soft Market Test presents a significant opportunity for businesses that specialise in software solutions, particularly those offering integrated asset management systems. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are well-suited to participate, as they can provide innovative and tailored solutions. The process may lead to further procurement opportunities, allowing firms to position themselves as potential providers for a shared system designed to support multiple authorities in their asset management needs.
