How often this buyer tenders this kind of work
Tactics
When contracts were awarded in this country and sector, usually 5 or more bids came in. Many compete here — price and references decide. (Based on 52 completed awards — not a statement about this procedure.)
This procedure allows 34 days between publication and deadline — typical in this country is 29 (median of 637 procedures). Much more generous than usual — time for a thorough bid rather than a quick one.
Foreign bidders
In Portugal, 2,516 contracts went to foreign companies over the last 3 years (of 2,047,133 recorded awards) — mostly from Spain, France, Germany.
Submission language: Portuguese.
