UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

North East Lincolnshire Borough Council is initiating the planning stage for the procurement contract titled "Preliminary Market Engagement Market Place Cleethorpes," targeting the construction industry.

Interested parties are invited to participate in the engagement process by completing a questionnaire via the YORtender platform before the deadline at 17:00 on 31st March 2025. An online event will be held with submissions of clarifications before 20th March 2025. The procurement process is still in its planning stage, and responses to the market survey will inform the eventual tendering process scheduled to potentially commence on 1st July 2025 and conclude by 31st March 2026.

This tender offers substantial growth opportunities, particularly for construction companies and consultancy services within the construction sector (CPV codes 45000000 and 71530000).

Participation in this preliminary market engagement allows businesses to gain insights into the upcoming procurement process, align their strategies, and enhance their bidding prospects for future tenders published by the North East Lincolnshire Borough Council. This initiative will particularly benefit businesses with experience in delivering similar large-scale construction projects and those willing to register with the governmental Find a Tender Service (FTS) to bid for the project.
