Currently in the planning stage, this process involves a preliminary market engagement to inform potential suppliers about the service specificities and procurement timeline, and to gather feedback. The engagement session, initially scheduled for 16th June 2026, was rescheduled to 7th July 2026, and interested parties can express their interest through email.
