Stevenage Borough Council in conjunction with East Herts District council are conducting pre procurement market engagement prior to seeking tenders for the provision of weed spraying services across the two councils.
The purpose of the Council’s pre-procurement market engagement process is to allow and enable, potentially interested organisations with appropriate expertise and relevant experience to: –
o Outline and generate initial views/ideas around the outcomes, scope and the potential procurement strategy (i.e. with no commitment to themselves or the Council).
o Engage with the Council to understand its challenges, intentions and desired Outcomes.
o Provide informal input to help [shape or refine] the Council’s technical requirements.
o Inform the Council of current market developments.
o Enable the Council to understand how the Current Requirements could be shaped and satisfied.
o Explain potential options available to the Council.
This stage of the project allows the Council to understand the strengths and weaknesses of the options available to deliver its outcomes. Furthermore, this process enables organisations to effectively plan for any potential forthcoming procurement.
Interested suppliers are invited to express interest and download the PPME documents and submit a questionnaire via https://in-tendhost.co.uk/supplyhertfordshire/aspx/Home before 3rd December 2025.
