As part of the commissioning process, the Authority is undertaking a soft market test. This gives potential Registered Social Landlords (RSLs) or Consortia arrangements and other stakeholders the opportunity to express their interests and feed in their views about the potential model and specification principles. The commissioners will use the information to appraise options and further develop the specification. To participate in this Soft Market Testing, organisations that may be interested, either individually or as part of a consortium, must complete a Soft Market Testing questionnaire. The questionnaire can be found by copying and pasting the following web link into your web browser: https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert?advertId=bde9a642-4541-ec11-810e-005056b64545 Further to this soft market test, the commissioners of this project are keen to hold an Online Market Engagement Event.
