Please complete the questionnaire within the 'Request for Information' document and return it electronically via the Portal by 12 noon 2nd May 2025.\nParticipation in this exercise is not a mandatory requirement for participation in any forthcoming procurement although the route to market (e.g. advertised or invitation only) is still yet to be determined, and the level of market interest received via this exercise may help inform this.\nThis exercise and any associated documentation, including any subsequent pre-market engagement, does not form any part of the tender process or evaluation and as such, this implies no commercial commitment by PCC. It is purely investigatory in nature, although it may be used to assist PCC in deciding how to shape any resulting procurement.\nPCC reserves the right to clarify or seek further information from some or all suppliers that respond to this engagement exercise.\nAny further information surrounding this exercise will be made available to all registered parties via the Portal."
