FM21146 Pubs Code Adjudicator (PCA) Expert Services

Description

UK Shared Business Services Ltd (UK SBS) on behalf of Pubs Code Adjudicator (PCA), are looking to engage with the market to identify suppliers that would be able to deliver low value expert services to the PCA and her office in various specialisms. For most requirements, the PCA is looking for suppliers with experience of providing professional services to landlords and/or tenants across the pub industry. At this stage the longer terms needs for this service are not fully known and as this is not a replacement service, the Pubs Code Adjudicator is initially looking to engage with various suppliers that may be able to offer these services on an ad hoc basis. This Prior Information Notice is being issued in order to undertake a market consultation exercise with regard to the current view of requirements contained within this notice. If you believe that this will be of interest to you and/or your organisation, please register your interest by sending an email to fmprocurement@uksbs.co.uk providing details of the services you would be able to offer. By providing your information you will be engaging in non-competitive dialogue which will enable the PCA to develop and assess the market's appetite, concerns, and views on formulation of its requirements both for the short term and potential longer term. The PCA may consider the information and responses received as part of the preliminary market consultation to help inform future appointments. The forecasted spend for the services as outlined below will be £40,000 PA however this figure is indicative across all the professional services that may be required over a 1-year period. As this expertise will be sought on a case by case basis there is no guarantee of any spend. It is envisaged that most requirements will be low value, but with the possibility of repeat appointments as business needs unfold. Suppliers are required to refer to the attached documentation that provides further details around the Pubs Code Adjudicator Service and types of services covered under this engagement notice. There is no commitment at this stage that the above-mentioned opportunity will proceed in its current format, however at this stage and subject to the relevant approvals this is the intention.
