## Summary

Plus Dane Housing is seeking input from the market for a potential procurement of a customer employment support service. This engagement is a pre-market test to determine the strategy and is not a formal tender. The process is currently in the tender stage, and relevant information is being collected from interested parties. The industry category is 'Other community, social and personal services,' with the project taking place in the North West region of the United Kingdom. Key dates include an end date for the tender period on 16 December 2024, with the contract period commencing on 17 December 2024 and ending on 18 December 2024.

This pre-market engagement represents a valuable opportunity for businesses in the community and social services sector, particularly those that are small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) or voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs). Organisations that are well-suited to provide employment support services can gain insight into the upcoming tender process and potentially influence the procurement strategy. Participating in this initial phase could lead to further engagement and opportunities to compete for future contracts with Plus Dane Housing.
