## Summary

The Herefordshire Council is initiating a procurement process for Property Services, identified as a Prior Information Notice. The process is currently in the planning stage, with engagement activities set to conclude by 25 August 2018. The Council plans to issue a Contract Notice in late 2018 for a strategic partnership lasting up to eight years, commencing in September 2019. Interested organisations are encouraged to participate in a consultation to share their insights on service delivery models, with a deadline for questionnaire submissions set for 11 June 2018. Meetings to discuss responses may occur the week commencing 18 June 2018.

This procurement represents a significant opportunity for companies specialising in repair and maintenance services, real estate, and associated fields such as catering, courier, and cleaning services. Businesses with experience in delivering property management solutions may find the Council's invitation to consult particularly advantageous, as it paves the way for potential partnerships and long-term contracts. Engaging with the Council now could enhance the chances of being included in the upcoming formal tendering process.

The Council wishes to consult with organisations with relevant experience of the delivery of similar services. The purpose of the consultation is to seek the early views of the market on potential service delivery models that best align with the Council's requirements. The consultation will assist the Council to identify preferred option(s) and help the Council in the planning and conduct of the procurement procedure. Suitably experienced organisations are invited to download an Information Pack and accompanying short questionnaire fromhttps://www.supplyingthesouthwest.org.uk. The completed questionnaire is to be returned to the Council via the portal by 12:00 noon on 11 June 2018. The Council may invite organisations that return the completed questionnaire to attend a meeting with the Council in Hereford to discuss the contents of the questionnaire. The meetings are scheduled for week commencing 18th June 2018. The Council makes no guarantee that any organisation that returns a completed questionnaire will be invited to attending a meeting with the Council. Additional information: Please download and return the questionnaire via the Supplying the South West Portal https://www.supplyingthesouthwest.org.uk by 12:00 noon 11th June 2018. In the event of any queries please use the ProContract messaging system. This Prior Information Notice (PIN) is an indication of potential future procurement activity and is subject to change.
