We would like feedback to gain a better understanding of how you manage your prices, what you think works well, what you have seen that works well on other tenders/frameworks and what would you like to see on the new iteration of the framework. On the 23rd and 24th January we will be available for 30-minute slots for potential bidders to book their preferred slots. Please select a time that you can attend and only where there is one participant against this slot (this means the slot is available). Any slots with 2 or more people will mean that this has already been booked. Please use the below link to a doodle poll to book your slot, please ensure you leave your contact details to that we can send the meeting invite. https://doodle.com/meeting/participate/id/bkwzVk6b Any clarifications in the meantime should be sent through the portal NOT by email. The submissions received will enable SUPC to gauge interest and finalise the specification for the service required. Please note that contrary to section 1.3 - Communication, there are currently no available tender documents as this notice is a Prior Information Notice only.",
