A second round of tendering will be conducted, and, if required, the authority may proceed to a third and final stage (Best and Final Offer (BAFO) round). The final contract award will be based on the refined award criteria, as communicated to suppliers during the procedure. The award criteria and their relative weightings are provided in the tender documents. All communications and submissions must be made electronically via Ariba.
