This exercise will provide an opportunity for the City to obtain insight into how participants might approach the delivery of the service in question. It also gives a useful early insight into the likely level of interest in a proposed project from that market. Participants must also note that a response to this notice does not guarantee an invitation to participate in this or any future procurement that the City may conduct, nor that the City will procure any such supplies and services or accept any proposals offered. Any Procurement of supplies and services by the City will be carried out strictly in accordance with the Procurement Act (PA23). The City has developed a questionnaire (attached at the end of this document) that they would like interested parties to complete. As stated above, the outcome of the PME exercise will inform an options appraisal with recommendations. please complete the questionnaire attached to the link below and return. https://cityoflondon.ukp.app.jaggaer.com/", "dueDate": "2025-06-24T23:59:59+01:00", "status": "scheduled" } ], "documents": [ { "id": "029628-2025", "documentType": "marketEngagementNotice", "noticeType": "UK2", "description": "Preliminary market engagement notice on Find a Tender", "url": "https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/029628-2025", "datePublished": "2025-06-03T16:49:02+01:00", "format": "text/html" } ] }, "tender": { "id": "prj_190", "legalBasis": { "id": "2023/54", "scheme": "UKPGA", "uri": "https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2023/54/contents" }, "title": "Youth Services", "description": "The City of London Corporation is awarding a needs-led, inclusive and flexible youth and play service that reflects the priorities and lived experiences of local children, young people, and families.
