Enfield Children's Home Pre-Procurement Market Engagement

The London Borough of Enfield (‘the Council) is undertaking pre-procurement market engagement to gather market intelligence and views regarding a future children’s residential service provision in the borough. As part of this pre-procurement market engagement, interested providers are invited to complete and return a Soft Market Test Questionnaire and register their interest to attend a Market Engagement event should they wish to do so. The Market Engagement event will take place online and will be held on Wednesday 29th June from 10:00 to 12:00. Information on the virtual event will be provided following registration. Potential providers should register their interest on the London Tenders Portal at https://www.londontenders.org, no later than 12:00 noon on Wednesday 22 June 2022. Please complete the Soft Market Test Questionnaire and submit this via the London Tenders Portal messaging page by 12:00 noon on Friday 24 May. The purpose of this initial engagement phase is to help inform the Council’s options and further decision making. For the avoidance of doubt, this PIN is intended as an awareness/information gathering exercise only and is not a call to competition, is not a pre-qualification process and is not the start of a formal procurement exercise. Participation or non-participation in this pre-procurement market engagement shall not prevent any potential provider participating in, nor shall it place any potential provider at an advantage in any future procurement opportunity. Any future procurement opportunity could be published between September and December 2022. However, this timeframe is indicative only and the Council reserves the right to reschedule any forthcoming publication at any time. Participants must also know that they should cover their own cost of participating in this market engagement and the Council is not liable for any cost incurred due to potential provider’s participation in the exercise.
