Where a Supplier is able to assist with elements of the requirement, they are requested to provide details including: * Rough Order of Magnitude (ROM) costs (where a costing is provided as a range, please also indicate most likely cost) * Technical details of any proposed solution A response is requested within 3 weeks of this notification being released. Likely delivery timescale would be by FY 26/27 for the delivery of this requirement.
