Information provided by responding suppliers will be used to inform TfL in its consideration of the nature of any future procurement process for CMS.
The purpose of this PIN is to:
• understand the market interest in this potential opportunity; and
• identify suppliers who would like to participate in the Market Sounding Questionnaire.

Participation in this PIN and EOI and any related market engagement will not disadvantage or affect any responding supplier’s ability to participate in any future procurement activity.
TfL will not enter a contract based on the responses to this PIN and EOI, and no information contained in this PIN and EOI or in any communication made between TfL and any supplier in connection with this should be relied upon as constituting a contract, agreement, or representation that any contract will be offered as a result of this PIN and EOI. If TfL decides to progress with any procurement exercise for CMS, TfL will publish a separate contract notice.
