For purchases from EUR 15,001 to EUR 143,000 (known as low- or middle-value contracts), the European Environment Agency (EEA) follows a negotiated procedure, inviting at least three or five candidates, depending on the value of the tender.

The EEA advertises calls for tenders from EUR 15,001 to EUR 143,000 on the EU Funding & Tenders Portal. Suppliers generally have at least two weeks to express interest in a specific negotiated procedure. The EEA will consider all expressions of interest received and invite at least three candidates for contracts with a value between EUR 15,001 and EUR 60,000, and at least five candidates for contracts between EUR 60,001 and EUR 143,000.

Expressing interest in negotiated procedures

Suppliers interested in negotiated procedures can express their interest through the EU Funding & Tenders Portal.

Registration of your interest to participate in a negotiated procedure for low- or middle-value contracts entails no obligation on the part of the EEA to send an invitation to tender to candidates or to award them a contract.
