What you need to do

PINs (Prior Information Notices) can help to alert potential suppliers to the opportunity and open a dialogue with them.

Points to consider

PINs include details of the customer organisation, contact details and a brief overview of the requirement including background, type of service, timescales and so on.

While they should be broad enough to allow for flexibility later, they should also be precise enough to avoid sending mixed, contradictory or misleading messages to the market.
