Strategic Contractors
Notice Description
Platform Housing requires a range of Contractors to deliver under a long term Partnership covering various combined workstreams, including but not limited to: Kitchens, Bathrooms, Roofs, Retrofit, Fire Safety, Electrics, Cyclical Decoration, Voids, Major Repairs. The details of potential Lots, Workstreams within Lots and also how these will be geographically structured are still being developed and the Pre Market Engagement will aid this and other key decisions ahead of the tender development.
Planning Information
The Pre Market Engagement will be focused around various Meet The Buyer Events x3. Platform's business is structured around 3 geographical localities we have booked a location in each of these locations to run both a presentation and then a "speed dating" event following the presentation. The dates and locations for these events are: 17 October - Lincoln - Lincoln University 21 October - Leicester - Holiday Inn 23 October - Bromsgrove - Holiday Inn All events will start at 10am, unless the formal advertising around these events says something different. The "speed dating" element of the event will be structured around our posed questions from within the presentation (known unknowns) and will last 10 minutes for each Contractor. Following these events, Platform reserve the right to run additional Pre Market Engagement, either 1-2-1 sessions or remote Webinar style, more details will be issued out after the original events have passed and feedback has been taken.
