What is being bought

Published requirement description

Before launching a procurement procedure, NI Water are issuing this RFI as a general market enquiry to identify and engage with service providers who can deliver management development services for NI Water. This RFI is a formal Pre-Market Engagement (PME) exercise. Some of the objectives of this Pre-Market Engagement (PME) Exercise include; make suppliers aware of NI Water’s current environment and need for management development services; obtain supplier views on this opportunity to enable NI Water to critically assess the viability of the approach.

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 50 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 5 points. This one is won on the number: sharpen the price before polishing the prose.
  • “RFI - Management Development Framework” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, not a single contract.

Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
