What the notice says

Nottingham City Council is undertaking a Preliminary Market Engagement (PME) exercise to better understand the current market for software solutions supporting Environmental Health, Trading Standards, General Licensing, Housing Licensing and Housing Health and Safety Rating System (HHSRS) inspection and enforcement functions. This questionnaire forms part of a soft market testing exercise only. It is NOT a procurement, invitation to tender, selection process or call for competition. Information provided will be used to inform the Council's future procurement strategy, lotting structure, specification development, implementation approach, commercial assumptions and procurement route.

  2. Register your organisation on the Central Digital Platform (through Find a Tender) if you have not already. Suppliers need to be registered to take part in procurements under the Procurement Act 2023.
