Description
Knowsley Council, supported by STAR Procurement, is seeking to engage with the supplier market ahead of a potential procurement for the provision of Alley Gate Maintenance and Key Replacements. The purpose of this Soft Market Testing (SMT) exercise is to: • Understand supplier interest and capability • Test deliverability of response times and technical elements • Identify any commercial or operational barriers • Refine the specification and pricing structure before tender publication This SMT process is informal and non-competitive. It does not form part of the evaluation process and does not provide any advantage or guarantee of future involvement.
