Interested parties must register an interest in this RFI via https://health-family.force.com/s/Welcome (search opportunities using system reference C361788). Suppliers can register from 19th May 2025 and the RFI documents will be made available by 29th May 2025. Registration for the event will close on 19th June 2025 at 13:00 BST. As part of our pre-tender market engagement process for the provision of Facilities Management Services, registered suppliers are invited to attend a Supplier Briefing Session which will consist of a presentation via Microsoft Teams which will be held on 23rd June 2025. Supplier’s may also request an optional 1-2-1 session on 23rd June 2025. Written RFI responses are requested by no later than Monday 7th July 2025. The NHS Business Services Authority (NHSBSA) invites all interested economic operators to participate in an RFI and a Supplier Webinar, followed by a number of 121 sessions in addition to a number of questions following the presentation, Please note at this stage a route to market has not yet been determined or the decision whether to extend the current contract. Should the outcome of this engagement session identify that a procurement is required and that the best value route to market is via a Framework Agreement then any subsequent invitation to tender and notices will be restricted to those appointed to the framework agreement and may be governed by the Procurement Regulations 2015. Additional Information Suppliers should note that this RFI and Preliminary Market Engagement is a market research exercise only and it is not an invitation to tender, an invitation to offer an agreement or a guarantee there will be a future procurement exercise. Participation in this RFI is limited to suppliers that meet the definition of “economic operator” under the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. “Economic operator” means any person, or public entity, or group of such persons and entities, including any temporary association of undertakings, that offers the execution of works or a work, the supply of products or the provision of services on the market. Where a participant does not meet this criteria they will not be able to attend the Supplier Briefing Session and may therefore be removed from the RFI The Supplier Webinar will start with an Open Forum Presentation that will be delivered by key members of the Project Team. Individual supplier 1-2-1 sessions will take the format of questions and answers with suppliers being able to ask any questions relating to the NHSBSA’s requirements, the previously delivered presentation and the potential procurement process. Disclaimers: (1) No competitive advantage will be gained by the suppliers engaging with the NHSBSA at this early stage and NHSBSA will ensure equal treatment of all interested parties at all times. We will make the outputs of the day available to those Suppliers who are unable to attend. (2) NHSBSA does not bind itself, by conducting this Supplier Webinar exercise, to commence any procurement procedure or award any contract, and will not in any event be responsible for any costs incurred by invitees in attending and/or preparing for the presentation and individual supplier meeting referred to above. (3) Confidentiality of information which is clearly marked or identified as being confidential and which is reasonably viewed by NHSBSA as confidential will be observed, but NHSBSA does not accept any blanket claims of confidentiality.
