o Provide informal input to help \[shape or refine\] the Council’s technical requirements.

o Inform the Council of current market developments.

o Enable the Council to understand how the Current Requirements could be shaped and satisfied.

o Explain potential options available to the Council.

This stage of the project allows the Council to understand the strengths and weaknesses of the options available to deliver its outcomes. Furthermore, this process enables organisations to effectively plan for any potential forthcoming procurement.

The Council will consider the input and responses received as part of this pre-procurement market engagement to help inform the Council’s options and further decision making.
