Opportunity overview

Translation from SPANISH to ENGLISH or vice versa of professional texts which may include contractual documents, legislation or other content.

Status Details
Dear Supplier, we are writing to inform all participants that we have decided to cancel the current tender process for the event of EU346 Specialized Translation and Proof reading Spain. Upon detailed review of the tender documents and the submissions received, we have identified that the original tender specifications were not as comprehensive or detailed as required. We understand that this may have made it challenging for you to provide fully accurate and appropriate bids. To ensure fairness and transparency for all prospective suppliers, and to facilitate the submission of precise and suitable bids, we believe the most appropriate course of action is to re tender this project. This will allow us to provide clearer, more robust, and more complete specifications. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate the time and effort you invested in preparing.
