Market survey for a consulting partner for the needs assessment and project planning phase of the Pori indoor sports and events facilities project

Summary

This is a request for information and market dialogue, not a call for tenders. Pori is preparing the procurement of a consulting partner for the needs assessment and project planning phases of an indoor sports and events facilities project on the former Pori bus station site, including an assessment of parking options and a likely implementation model. The future partner would prepare and compile documents, produce content, facilitate stakeholder participation, support the city’s staff and elected representatives, and prepare a building-history assessment of the former bus station. Companies wishing to participate in the information request and market dialogue must respond by 31 August 2026 at 10:00. The market dialogue is planned for 1 September 2026 from 09:30 to 11:00 via Teams. The actual tender is tentatively planned for September 2026, with the assignment expected to start in October 2026. The planned work periods are six months for the needs assessment and 12 months for the project plan.
