As part of procuRE’s work in the Action Cluster for Business Models and Finance, the project is presenting a series of recordings and presentations from Tender Webinars as well as some news about extended deadlines and the matchmaking platform.
All guidance webinars are in one place ready to watch
In the last two months procuRE team held three Tender Webinars which clarified questions. The first Tender Launch webinar, which took place on November 30, 2021, informed potential suppliers about the design of the call, the structure of the technical challenge as well as the conditions and application procedure. Procurers answered questions from the suppliers during the Q&A session at the event. The recording of the event with time stamps and the presentation for download are available here.
The second event - Tender Webinar 1 – Technical – was held on December 16, 2021, where procurers explained the technical aspects of the Tender in more detail. In the recording and presentation, you can learn what exactly the challenge is, what core principles/terminology are, how core files TD1 and TD2 look like, what the expected outcome is and how to complete the Technical Application Template TD6.
The third event devoted to Tender Webinar 2 – Admin and Finance, took place on January 13, 2022. Georg Vogt (empirica) presented general PCP requirements, overviewed core files admin and financial templates and discussed how the contract works. The recording and presentation are also available on the procuRE website.
