This is a pre-market engagement to enable the council to interact with potential providers and suppliers before formally starting a procurement process, its aim is to help the council understand the market better to refine its requirements based on supplier feedback, to encourage competition and identify challenges ahead.

East Lindsey District Council will be the lead accountable body for the South and East Lincolnshire Councils Partnership delivery of domestic retrofit grant programmes.
The partnership is seeking a funding award under Warm Homes - Local Grant that should last for a minimum of 3 years which is anticipated to start on 1 April 2025.
