Description:
***PRELIMINARY MARKET ENGAGEMENT EXERCISE*** The Department of Finance's (DoF) Integr8 Programme is currently preparing to initiate a procurement process to establish a contract with a Supplier to deliver Payroll Administrative Services. The potential scale and scope of this service is such that it offers a significant opportunity to bidders. Prior to initiating the procurement, the Department wishes to establish the level of market interest in participating in the procurement process to help assess the reaction of the market; to help define the requirements for such a project; to provide a better understanding of the project feasibility and preferred approach; to provide a better understanding of the capacity for the market to deliver; to help identify the risks involved; to help minimise the procurement timescales; to prevent unachievable projects from reaching the tender stage; to gain insight to the market possibilities and potential innovative solutions available at this time; and to inform the Procurement Strategy. Suitably qualified and experienced suppliers who may have an interest in this project are invited to complete the questionnaire that is available to registered suppliers via the documents areas of the CfT on eTendersNI for this Preliminary Market Engagement. In responding, you should understand that detailed and lengthy submissions are not necessary at this stage. However we would welcome any pertinent information on your company’s capability and views on an approach to the provision of the required services. Any submission received in response to this exercise will not constitute any contractual agreement between the respondent and DoF. Interested parties shall bear their own costs of participation in this Market Engagement of whatever nature. DoF shall not be liable for the costs, expenses or losses howsoever arising (including, without limitation, any loss of profit or other economic loss incurred), regardless of the outcome of the Market Engagement. The next stage in the process will be considered once this exercise has been completed. **PLEASE NOTE: ALL COMPLETED QUESTIONNAIRES MUST BE SUBMITTED VIA THE MESSAGING FUNCTION on eTendersNI, BEFORE 15:00 on the date specified below under 'Time-limit for receipt of tenders or requests to participate'.
