Description

The Association of North East Councils Trading as the North East Procurement Organisation (NEPO) seeks to establish a multi-lot, multi-supplier procurement solution for the provision of Executive, Permanent, and Fixed-Term Recruitment Services. The purpose of the prior information notice (PIN) is to provide advance notice to the marketplace of the tendering opportunity and intentions of NEPO to hold market consultation activities with suppliers to help shape the future Framework Agreement. NEPO are not advertising this PIN as a mechanism to reduce future procurement timescales. NEPO intends to publish a soft market testing questionnaire via the NEPO eTendering portal. The questionnaire will be used to assess interest in the tendering opportunity and to gain information and insight from the market to help shape the future NEPO525 Framework Agreement design. The soft market testing questionnaire will be made accessible via the NEPO eTendering portal on Friday 10 September 2021 with a submission deadline of 12 p.m. Friday 24 September 2021. Suppliers wishing to access and complete the soft market testing questionnaire must first register on the portal using the following link https://procontract.due-north.com/register?openform In addition, NEPO intends to hold individual market consultation meetings. Market consultation meetings advertised openly via this PIN are limited in number and will take place the week commencing Monday 27 September 2021. Suppliers wishing to register attendance must do so in writing to Bethany Wake (bethany.wake@nepo.org) no later than 12 p.m. on 24 September 2021. Appointments will be no longer than 1 hour and NEPO intend to conduct these sessions virtually through online meeting platform applications. NEPO anticipates these virtual meeting sessions will take place on Microsoft Teams or other secure meeting platforms. The time and location of each appointment will be confirmed following the registration deadline and places will be secured on a first come first serve basis.
