Tactics

When this buyer has awarded in this sector, usually only one or two bids came in. A solid bid has a real chance here. (Based on 3 completed awards — not a statement about this procedure.)

This procedure allows 12 days between publication and deadline — typical in this country is 32 (median of 1,471 procedures). Much tighter than usual: the first week counts.
