    "description": "The University of Portsmouth is currently assessing options for the potential procurement of a Leisure Management System to support the effective management and operation of our sports and leisure facilities and related services. This Preliminary Market Engagement (PME) is an exploratory exercise and does not form part of a formal procurement procedure. Participation in this PME does not create any obligation on the part of the University to initiate or proceed with a procurement process. Furthermore, a decision not to participate in this exercise will not preclude any supplier from being considered in any future tendering opportunities.\nThe primary objective of this exercise is to gain a deeper understanding of the market landscape, including available solutions and their functionality, industry best practices, indicative pricing models, implementation approaches, and any innovative capabilities relevant to leisure and facility management.\nAs part of this engagement, we would welcome comprehensive information about your solution, including its key features, modules, integrations, reporting capabilities, user experience, and any differentiating functionality.",
