In some circumstances, the Council may choose to run a tender through the Open Procedure. By using this procedure, all suppliers who have expressed an interest are given the opportunity to complete the Invitation to Tender, there is no short listing process using a PQQ (pre-qualification questionnaire). This procedure is mainly used when the requirement is specialist and there are only limited suppliers who may be interested in tendering.
