Procedure rationaleAs per Article 32(2)(a) where no tenders, no suitable tenders, no requests to participate or no suitable requests to participate have been submitted in response to an open procedure or a restricted procedure, provided that the initial conditions of the contract are not substantially altered and that a report is sent to the Commission where it so requests, no suitable tender was received for notice ref 2023/S 000-036287, therefore with no changes to the initial conditions of the contract Invest NI moved from open to negotiated procedure without prior publication.
