## Summary

The Education Authority NI is planning a preliminary market consultation exercise titled "Preliminary Market Consultation Questionnaire - Repair and Maintenance of EA Vehicles" in Belfast. This initiative falls under the industry category of repair and maintenance services and is designed to gather insights on innovations in vehicle repair and maintenance. The closing date for submissions is set for 3pm on Friday, 12th February. While the current stage is defined as planning, this effort aims to inform a potential subsequent procurement process, although participation does not guarantee an advantage in future tenders.

This consultation presents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in vehicle maintenance and repair services to engage with a major public buyer. Companies that specialise in innovative repair techniques or maintenance solutions would be particularly well-suited to contribute their insights. This process not only allows businesses to showcase their capabilities but also to potentially shape the future procurement framework of the Education Authority NI, fostering an environment for growth in the sector.

## Notice

The purpose of this market consultation exercise is to gain an understanding of the latest developments and innovations in the provision of Vehicle Repair and Maintenance and to assist the Education Authority (EA) in ensuring that the most efficient and effective methods are undertaken and included in its forthcoming procurement exercise. Any information gathered through this market consultation exercise will inform internal business planning and any possible subsequent procurement process and will NOT be appraised in any future procurement exercise. Please note that participation or non-participation in this preliminary market consultation exercise shall not prevent any supplier participating in any potential procurement process, nor is it intended that any information supplied shall place any supplier at an advantage or disadvantage in any forthcoming procurement process. For the avoidance of doubt, this is the scoping phase of the project and is not part of a formal procurement process.
