    Following this UK2 notice, OCC will undertake a structured soft market test comprising a written RFI and time limited presentation by the supplier. These will take place during the month of May 2026

    The RFI can be accessed by emailing Ian Newton at inewton@oxford.gov.uk. If you are interested in taking part please email by 30th April 2026, and return responses to the RFI by midnight BST May 17th 2026.

    The presentations will be an opportunity for the supplier to expand on items contained within the RFI and the chance to showcase their system. These will be held remotely between 18th and the 29th of May. The agenda and content for the supplier presentation will be released on the 1st May to those suppliers who have communicated their desire to take part.

    For clarity, participation in this market engagement is not a requirement for anyone wishing to submit a bit as part of the potential future tender process, and response to the RFI and subsequent presentations will have no bearing on any scoring associated with tenders.
