Bidders who express an interest will be expected to complete the questionnaire. Completed questionnaires should be submitted no later than 5pm, 28/03/2024 via the messaging portal within the e-procurement system.

Commissioners are looking to establish what interest there might be in providing such a service from suitably qualified, capable and competent organisations. BSW ICB will not be liable for costs incurred by any interested party in participating in this exercise. Interested parties should note that a response to this notice does not guarantee an automatic invitation to any subsequent formal procurement, which the commissioners will consider in due course.
