The Sample Management Capability (SMC) - PIN 2 Technical Dialogue

This PIN is to allow the engagement with the supply chain through Technical Dialogue (TD), here we will seek an open response to certain key lines of enquiry where this will be followed by interviews with selected organisations, based upon their initial response. This is intended to test the current strategic direction of the AS where SL will seek to further develop its understanding and confidence of the proposed technical and commercial strategies prior to potentially undertaking a formal procurement process, in accordance with the Public Contracts Regulations. As such this phase may support the further development, and refinement, of the proposed procurement, technical, and commercial arrangements. The Technical Dialogue will allow SL to engage across a number of project functional areas including: 1. Design and Engineering to support the Modular Accommodation Strategy 2. Site installation and commissioning works 3. Installation and integration of laboratory plant and equipment 4. Schedule and Workpack Delivery 5. Contracting Models
