STFC will be holding a supplier engagement day in
order to assess the market's appetite, concerns, and
views on formulation of requirement.
The estimated value of the framework is 5,000,000.00

We anticipate this being a 3 - year agreement.
The supplier engagement days will be held at
Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, Harwell Campus,

day. STFC may consider information and responses
received as part of the preliminary market consultation
to help inform STFC's options and further decision
making in relation to the planning and conduct of the
proposed procurement.
For the avoidance of doubt, this notice is not a Call for
Competition; a Contract Notice will be issued as a call
for competition. Not registering an interest shall not
prevent any supplier participating in a potential future
procurement, nor is it intended that any information
supplied as part of preliminary market consultation
shall place any supplier at an advantage in a potential
procurement process. Participation in preliminary
market consultation will be at each supplier's own
cost.
