Description

Education Authority Northern Ireland (EANI) is currently preparing to initiate a procurement

process to award a framework for the Collection and Disposal of ICT and Electrical Equipment for the Education Authority throughout Northern Ireland. EANI wishes to engage

with the market at this stage to establish the level of market interest and to gather

information that will be beneficial in the retendering process. Suppliers who wish to

participate in the market engagement exercise should complete the pre-market engagement

questionnaire. Further information including the questionnaire can be downloaded from CfT

Documents of CfT 6035830 The questionnaire must be completed and submitted no later

than 3 pm on the closing date detailed. There are no formal documents to be completed

other than the questionnaire. Any information gathered will NOT be considered in any future

tender evaluation exercise. Participation or non-participation in this pre-procurement market

engagement shall not prevent any supplier/provider from participating in a potential

procurement process nor is it intended that any information supplied shall place any

supplier/ provider at an advantage in any forthcoming procurement process. For the

avoidance of doubt, this stage of the project is not part of a formal procurement process and

there is no commitment, at this stage to carrying out such a process.
