UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Slough Borough Council is inviting providers to participate in a planned procurement process for a 2nd Party Anti-Social Behaviour (ASB) Enforcement Service. This procurement falls under the services category, specifically targeting sewage, refuse, cleaning, and environmental services—set within the region of Slough, UKJ11, United Kingdom. As part of the planning stage, interested providers are encouraged to complete a questionnaire by 10th March 2026, which will assist the council in developing its specification. The procurement process is currently in the planning stage with formal procurement expected to follow after soft market testing, and the possible start date of the contract is 1st June 2026, with a potential term extending to 31st May 2028 or beyond, subject to renewal.

This tender provides a significant opportunity for businesses that specialise in environmental services, particularly those with expertise in managing anti-social behaviour through enforcement services. The opportunity is well-suited for SMEs due to the council's expressed interest in diverse providers for this engagement. The soft market testing exercise promotes informal dialogue, allowing businesses to influence the service requirements while gaining insights into future tender processes. With the emphasis on expanding supplier participation, companies specialising in sewage, refuse, and cleaning with innovative approaches to ASB management can effectively leverage this tender to expand their business operations in the public sector.
