## Summary

Thurrock Council is currently in the planning stage of a procurement process titled "Temporary Accommodation - Expression of Interest". This initiative falls under the accommodation services category and is located in Grays, England. The council aims to appoint experienced letting agents to manage short and long-term accommodation. Interested parties are invited to submit their expressions of interest by 12 noon on 7th February 2020, after which a formal tender process will be initiated.

This opportunity could be advantageous for businesses specialising in property management or letting services, particularly small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs). Engaging in this market test allows businesses to showcase their capabilities and potentially secure contracts for managing accommodation on behalf of the council. By actively participating, companies can establish valuable connections and gain insights into the local market needs, paving the way for future growth within this sector.

## Notice

At this stage there is no guarantee of business from the Council with this simply being a market test. To take part in this exercise, please complete the attached form and return by email by 12 noon on 7th February 2020.
