The engagement end date is set for 24th February 2023. Potential suppliers are encouraged to provide feedback on the procurement strategy and approach, scoping of requirements, innovative ideas, and available options. This tender opportunity from the Isle of Wight Council can benefit businesses in the radio, television, communication, telecommunication, software, information systems, telecommunications, information technology services, and call centre industries. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) would find this opportunity particularly well-suited due to the nature of the engagement approach and the focus on feedback and innovation. ## Notice The Isle of Wight Council (the Authority) is engaging with Potential Suppliers to seek views and feedback by responding to the information provided and the questionnaire.
