The procurement contact named on the official notice.

All communications and tender submissions must be made through the MHCLG Atamis e-SourcingPortal. https://atamis-5407.my.site.com/login?locale=us Once you have clicked to register your interest on the Portal, you then need to navigate to My Proposals and Quotes where you should have visibility of the documents. Under the Document tab within the procurement-project record the documents are listed and can be downloaded. Suppliers must ensure that their nominated point of contact on the Portal is accurate and kept up to date. Suppliers wishing to participate must register their organisation on the Central Digital Platform before responding to the ITT and must ensure that core supplier information is complete, accurate and up to date.

The submission route named on the official notice.

Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MCHLG) has published 279 notices across all categories, and 41% of its awards go to a supplier it has used before.

Which is the argument for getting on the list rather than winning this one. The incumbent is rarely the last winner — it is the roster. See the retention odds by category →
