## About this tender

The Intellectual Property Office (IPO) is conducting Early Market Engagement (Engagement) to procure services needed to deliver the second phase of its Transformation Programme (Phase 2).

Through this process you can express views and provide detail on potential ways of working and offer feedback on possible contractual arrangements which may help the IPO meet its needs.

This Engagement is not a formal procurement process nor an Invitation to Tender, although it may shape part of a tender opportunity in the future. No associated documentation or any associated Preliminary Market Engagement Notice constitutes a ‘call for competition’.
