## Description
Rapid Response & Tunnel Access Services for the Thames Tideway Tunnel - Market Engagement:
Following completion of the Works on the Thames Tideway Tunnel (TTT) project, Tideway is responsible for maintaining the TTT network during the System Acceptance period which currently runs from approximately mid 2025 for a minimum of 18 and up to a 36 month period.
Tideway is therefore exploring service delivery options for rapid response & tunnel access capability across the 21 project sites during the System Acceptance period.
Tideway is inviting suppliers in relevant industries to respond initially to a market engagement questionnaire so that Tideway can better understand the industry, its capabilities, capacity and appetite for a potential service package.
To express interest in this opportunity and to receive the market engagement documentation, suppliers should register through emailing procurement@tideway.london with relevant organisation and individual contact details. 
Suppliers who register will then be provided with a market engagement briefing paper which will provide further details of the package in question and a market engagement questionnaire for review and completion for issue back to Tideway. Information provided will assist with internal procurement planning prior to issue of Pre-Qualification Questionnaire, currently planned for March 2024.
Further details of the Thames Tideway Tunnel Project can be found at www.Tideway.London.
