Other Information

As part of the commissioning process, the Authority is undertaking a soft market test. This gives potential Registered Housing Providers (RPs) or Consortia arrangements (Providers) and other stakeholders the opportunity to express their interests and feed in their views about the proposed project brief. This soft market test process does not constitute a formal tender or other competitive bidding process and will not result in a Contract. The Authority is using this process solely to test the market to gather information and ascertain the level of interest in this particular opportunity. There are therefore no formal criteria which we will use to judge your responses and it is not our intention to provide any feedback. To participate in this Soft Market Testing, potential Registered Housing Providers (RPs) or Consortia arrangements (Providers) and other stakeholders that may be interested must complete a Soft Market Testing questionnaire. The questionnaire can be found by copying and pasting the below web link into your web browser. This completed questionnaire must be returned electronically by email before or no later than 14:00 hours on 21/06/2023 to procurement-asc@leicester.gov.uk with the subject heading Completed SMT Q AH.
