When contracts were awarded in this country and sector, usually only one or two bids came in. A solid bid has a real chance here. (Based on 46 completed awards — not a statement about this procedure.)

This procedure allows 18 days between publication and deadline — typical in this country is 34 (median of 3,233 procedures). Much tighter than usual: the first week counts.
