Planning Information
This engagement: We are looking for market information regarding this procurement. If you would like to respond to the Authority's Request for Information, then please do so by accessing our eSourcing Portal here: https://atamis-ukparliament.my.site.com/s/Welcome. You should navigate to the opportunity titled "Network Managed Service - Pre-Market Engagement" where you will be able to view and respond to the RFI. Past Engagements: A Request for Information was previously issued to suppliers on the Crown Commercial Service's framework, Network Services 3 (RM6116) in June 2025. The procurement strategy has now changed, and the Authority is considering competing this requirement via the Competitive Flexible Procedure. As such, we are inviting all prospective Bidders in the market to review and respond to our RFI. In addition, the Authority has conducted a small number of conversations with existing suppliers to support strategic discovery around future service delivery models for Parliament’s end-to-end digital services (not limited to Networks). The focus of these conversations were broad, and looked for information on strategic market insights rather than on any specific service areas. No specific detail relating to the forthcoming Network Managed Service procurement were shared during these conversations, and the information that was gathered has not shaped the commercial strategy for Network Managed Services, or the End-User IT Services option. No expressions of interest in the future tender were sought during any of the previous pre-market engagement activity, and all information shared is additionally covered in this latest round of engagement.
