Planning

No Engagement Notice Rationale The University has a well-established understanding of the exhibition stand market through previous procurements, ongoing engagement with suppliers operating in this sector, and recent participation in relevant industry events. As a result, the University considers that sufficient market knowledge already exists to inform the procurement strategy and specification, and that publishing a Preliminary Market Engagement Notice would be unlikely to provide additional value or materially influence the design of the procurement.
