"description": "The Home Office uses an eSourcing toolkit to enable its sourcing activities to be conducted over the internet. In order to express an interest, please follow the steps set out below. The procurement will be managed electronically using the Jaggaer eSourcing Portal. The eSourcing Portal is an online application that allows suppliers to create and submit their Tender responses to any requests for information, requests for quotes, or requests for proposals via the internet rather than in paper form. To participate in this procurement, participants must first be registered on the eSourcing Suite. If you have not yet registered this can be done online at https://homeoffice.app.jaggaer.com/web/login.html by following the link to Register. All suppliers interested in learning more about any potential contract opportunities described in this contract notice should submit their details (company name, lead contact name, lead contact email address and telephone number), including the reference you are interested in bidding for, in the first instance, to the following address: ASRAProcurementTeam@homeoffice.gov.uk. The Authority requires all participants to sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) in order to be invited to participate in the competition for this project. Arrangements will then be made for registered suppliers to receive the NDA via email from the above mentioned email address. Suppliers must then provide a signed non-disclosure agreement via email to receive access to the Home Office and Asylum Interviews Procurement Documents and ITT event on the eSourcing Portal. Any expressions of interest not submitted in the required format (or containing the requested information) may be rejected. When sending the 'pdf' document, please ensure that you include the participant organisation's name in the filename. Once a correctly signed NDA is received by the Authority, participants will be invited to the Invitation to Tender (ITT) event and will be able to access all of the project documentation. The closing date for submissions will be 4pm on Friday 31 May 2024. ITT Response clarification requests must be submitted no later than 3pm on Friday 24 May 2024. The Authority reserve the right to delay or adjust our timetables or such other aspects of the procurement as we consider appropriate and will notify all bidders of any changes as and when these are required.",
