Pre-procurement and market dialogue
Practical proposals to public project owners while the procurement can still be shaped.
Overview
We help contractors formulate practical proposals for public project owners through permitted market engagement. We examine how procurement routes, lot boundaries, qualification requirements, evaluation criteria and risk allocation affect which bidders can participate and how credibly they can commit. Our input brings the realities of the construction market into the discussion while the procurement can still be shaped.
Work we do
Prepare the contractor's contribution to permitted consultation. Assess whether lot sizes, technical requirements, qualification criteria and risk allocation restrict participation or make bids difficult to compare. Develop practical alternatives based on capacity, buildability and packaging.
Typical output
Consultation brief with proposals and likely implications.
