Description

Procurement for Housing (PfH) is looking to receive feedback on a potential new Recruitment and Professional Services framework. The framework will cover England, Wales and Scotland. The Professional Services element is new and additional to the current Recruitment Framework and this PME is specifically concerned with Professional Service providers. Therefore, all information gained through the Pre Market Engagement will help develop our understanding of what is available in the market. This engagement is aimed to discover organisations that can provide these professional services, as opposed to recruit for these services. The engagement also seeks to establish what services are available under each lot. We would appreciate your participation in this questionnaire and any subsequent further engagement under the pre market engagement notice. The information provided will shape the framework and its structure. For full details of all our frameworks please follow the link to our website - https://procurementforhousing.co.uk/procurement-frameworks/ Please reach out to supportservices@pfh.co.uk and further information will be provided along with a questionnaire. Please note that this is simply an information gathering exercise on some proposed aspects of our forthcoming framework tender which may be subject to change. Please include in the email Header “Preliminary Market Engagement – Professional Services and Recruitment”.
