Description
The Northern Ireland Assembly Commission is undertaking a Preliminary Market Engagement (PME) exercise to inform a potential future procurement for a resilient secondary internet connectivity service to Parliament Buildings. This engagement seeks to understand market capability, feasible delivery approaches, indicative costs, and potential constraints associated with delivering a secondary connectivity service within a Grade 1 listed building. The outcome will support the development of a proportionate specification, procurement strategy, and delivery model. This is not a call for competition. Participation is voluntary and will not advantage or disadvantage any organisation in any future procurement process.
