Planning Information

This market engagement process will be conducted through a questionnaire allowing TGPL to gather input from potential suppliers. This exercise is intended to enhance our understanding of the market's experience and capabilities. The insights gained will help shape the Lotting structure in terms of size and regions of the Lots, pricing mechanisms, conditions of participation and IT requirements. Please note that neither phase will form part of the procurement process and will be for informational purposes only. We reserve the option to meet with a sample of suppliers where clarification is deemed necessary and will further help to shape the approach to our final contract requirements. Any interest shown in this market engagement does not constitute a commitment to participate in a procurement exercise. Failure to show interest does not restrict providers from participating in any future procurement exercise. The market engagement is for information and not a means to limit competition.
