Pripravované verejné obstarávania nad 140 000 EUR
Úrad EFSA uverejňuje predbežné oznámenie, v ktorom hospodárskym subjektom oznamuje, že v budúcnosti plánujeme vyhlásiť výzvu na predkladanie ponúk. Predbežné oznámenie sa nezverejňuje pre každú výzvu úradu EFSA, slúži len na informačné účely a nie je pre úrad EFSA záväzné. Cieľom je zvýšenie transparentnosti nášho plánovania nadchádzajúcich výziev a umožnenie potenciálnym dodávateľom a poskytovateľom služieb, aby sa vopred pripravili na predkladanie ponúk na nadchádzajúce zákazky. Úrad EFSA môže predbežné oznámenie využiť aj na požiadanie hospodárskych subjektov, aby vyjadrili záujem o účasť na prieskume a analýze trhu ex ante.
Položky na tejto stráne sa pravidelne aktualizujú. Je však možné, že predbežné oznámenie sa stále zobrazuje, kým je výzva na predkladanie ponúk už uverejnená. Z tohto dôvodu Vám odporúčame, aby ste vždy skontrolovali časť Verejné obstarávania nad 140 000 EUR, kde nájdete všetky otvorené výzvy na predkladanie ponúk.
