What the notice says

Norfolk Community Health and Care NHS Trust (NCHC) is issuing this Request for Information (RFI) to engage with the market ahead of a future procurement for general building and decorating services across a community healthcare estate in Norfolk, Suffolk and Cambridgeshire.

The procurement strategy will be finalised (i.e. Dynamic Market or Framework) following completion of PME.
