Tender description

***This is not a tender exercise by the Education Authority.*** The Education Authority wishes to engage with the market to seek their views on establishing a robust, value for money contract for the repair of floor maintenance machines across various locations throughout Northern Ireland. 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 tender evaluation exercise. Please note that participation or non-participation in this preliminary market consultation exercise shall not prevent any supplier from 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. Further information including the questionnaire can be downloaded from Cft documents. The Questionnaire must be completed and returned via the messaging function of etendersni. The tender is envisaged to be published June 2022. Please note any estimated contract values within this notice are subject to change and will be published in the future contract notice. Lot 1: The Education Authority (EA) is currently preparing to initiate a procurement process to award a contract for the repair of floor maintenance machines.

Additional information: The date relating to the publication of the contract notice is tentative and may be subject to change.
