Please see the RFI documents provided within project 32109 and itt 123064 on etenderwales BravoSolution and note that participation is ONLY via a completed 2. SU64(26) RFI Questions & Response Document which must be uploaded on the etenderwales BravoSolution website by the 09:00 Thursday 19th March 2026 extended deadline. https://etenderwales.ukp.app.jaggaer.com/web/login.shtml Suppliers should submit any queries via the Message Board facility on etenderwales BravoSolution by 12:00 noon on Tuesday 10th March 2026 to allow responses to be built into their submitted document as we do not wish to extend this deadline, as this may compromise the timing of the planned Open Tender process later this year.
