This will help us shape the most appropriate contractual approach and ensure that any future tender is practical, well-structured and attractive to the market. Please note that this activity does not constitute an invitation to tender and is not a request for formal expressions of interest. Instead, this market engagement aims to gather insights from suppliers to understand market capacity, gauge interest, and ensure that the planned procurement is feasible and aligned with current industry capabilities.
