        "description": "So Network Rail can understand the market for asset protection training services, market engagement via questionnaire is being invited to understand the number of suppliers active, their coverage nationally and their potential costs for budgeting. This will inform if Network Rail decides to proceed with a future procurement and as well as chosen routes to market.\nPlease note, the exact dates for any procurement should one take place are estimated only at this stage and could vary to be either sooner or later subject to pipeline planning.\nMarket engagement will be hosted on Network Rail's e-tendering platform Bravo. The event on Bravo can be accessed via this link - https://networkrail.bravosolution.co.uk/esop/guest/go/opportunity/detail?opportunityId=61037\nIf you organisation is not yet registered for Bravo, it can be accessed here - https://networkrail.bravosolution.co.uk/web/login.html"
