Contracting authorities are encouraged to consider, on a case-by-case basis, undertaking preliminary market consultation (PMC) prior to tendering in order to better understand the market including the range of goods and services available, market developments, what commercial models are available, the competitive landscape, and the specific capabilities of SMEs. Further information on PMCs can be found here.
The following documents can be used when initiating a tendering process:
CAUTION: These documents are provided in a protected word format and should not be edited outside of the designated text boxes and free text areas. If a contracting authority does not wish for a relevant provision in these text boxes or free text areas to apply to the RFT, it must delete the red text above the paragraph and insert “Not Used”.
The OGP cannot provide unprotected versions of the templates. To do so will diminish the document’s legal standing. In the event that these documents are not deemed appropriate for a contracting authority’s unique requirements, the contracting authority may wish to consider drafting its own RFT. The OGP strongly advises that contracting authorities seek their own legal advice when developing their own procurement documents.
CAUTION: These documents are periodically updated on the website. It is advised that you always check the website to make sure you are using the most up to date version of the documents and not to reuse older templates as they may no longer be compliant with new legislation.
