This tender, classified under the construction industry category, aims to enhance the efficiency of the Volunteer Estate over a delivery timescale of 30 months, commencing January 2022. The procurement is currently in the Tender stage, with the deadline for submissions set for 31 August 2022. A virtual supplier information session is scheduled for 27 July 2022, designed to enlighten potential suppliers about the REOP and the associated requirements. The estimated project duration runs from 2 October 2023 to 1 July 2025. This procurement process represents an excellent opportunity for businesses in the construction sector, particularly those with capabilities in building and refurbishing facilities. Companies that can efficiently manage complex construction projects and offer innovative solutions for the cadet experience would be particularly well-suited to compete. By participating in this engagement, businesses can potentially tap into a significant government investment aimed at modernising the Volunteer Estate, just as the Programme progresses through its planned tranches. ## Notice This PIN is being published with a focus on pre-market engagement in order to inform a business case being submitted for approval autumn 2022. Once the business case is approved, we will be in a position to establish timescales in order to tender for the works. Any supplier responding to this PIN will be advised once the tender is published but will still have to meet the requirements as stated within the tender documents. A virtual supplier information session will be held on Wednesday, 27 July from 10am to 12pm in order to provide suppliers background on the Reserve Forces' and Cadets' Associations and to go through the information contained in the pre-market engagement survey. Nothing discussed in the virtual supplier information session will differ from the information contained within this PIN, the pre-market engagement survey or background information provided.

The Programme will be delivered in a series of 3 sequential Tranches. REOP Tranche 1 consists of projects which represent immediate optimisation opportunities for the Volunteer Estate, and focuses principally on improving the cadet experience. The mandated delivery timescale for Tranche 1 is 30 months as of January 2022, and it consists of the following two workstreams: *A group of 'early wins' projects, which has received approval to proceed and is currently in delivery. The 'early wins' projects do not fall within scope of this market engagement survey. *A group of more complex 'remainder' projects, consisting of new build Joint Cadet Centres (JCC's) along with refurbishments and extensions to existing cadet facilities.
