*PRE-MARKET ENGAGEMENT QUESTIONNAIRE* - Bodywork Repair for EA Vehicles

Tender description

** This is not a tender exercise by the Education Authority**. The Education Authority (EA) is currently preparing to initiate a procurement process to establish a Framework Agreement for a Bodywork Repair service. Prior to initiating the procurement, the EA wishes to establish the level of market interest in participating in the procurement process. At this stage, any information gathered through this market consultation exercise may inform a subsequent procurement process and will NOT be appraised in any future tender evaluation exercise. Please note that participation or non-participation in this preliminary market consultation exercise shall not prevent any provider participating in any procurement process, nor is it intended that any information supplied shall place any provider 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. Further information including the questionnaire can be downloaded from the CfT Documents. The questionnaire must be completed and returned via the Messaging function by 14th October 2021. There are no formal tender documents to be completed.
