YPO intends to hold pre-engagement sessions between 7 April - 2 May, 2025.
We require feedback from suppliers on the previous solution as well as potential new products and services supporting the event of pre and post emergency response to expand the scope, review Terms and Conditions, discuss market conditions, discuss price element, review options for delivery of Social Value, discuss potential routes to the market and discuss mechanisms for call-offs in order to ensure the new iteration is fit-for-purpose for public sector customers to call off.
Sessions will take place remotely (via Microsoft Teams) or in-person, depending on the availability and capacity of the supplier. Please contact Laura Megson at laura.megson@ypo.co.uk to request further information and to arrange availability for a PME session.
