Ehdotuksen tiedot

The document describes the transactions for pre-award processes between Contracting Entities (Buyer) and Economic Operators (Seller), where the Buyer seeks to establish a contract for the procurement of products, services, or works. The various possible behaviours of Buyers and Sellers are represented through choreography variants as described in prEN 17014-2:2025 [7]. This document specifies the transactions described by the choreography variants and captures their specific functional and informational aspects. The transactions are grouped along the following collaborations which are applied in pre-award choreographies: — Procurement procedure subscription — Procurement documents access — Tender submission — Procurement documents questions and answers — Tender clarification — Tender withdrawal — Notify awarding — Tendering message response — Tenderer qualification — Qualification response — Invitation to tender For each transaction, the document specifies the underlying business and information requirements, including the functional and procedural objectives the transaction must fulfil, the structure and semantics of the related data, and the governing business rules ensuring valid execution. In addition, all defined data elements are aligned with the eProcurement Ontology (ePO) to achieve semantic interoperability and consistent representation across procurement systems.
