Below is a summary of the next stages of the process.
Competitive dialogue: during this stage, the pre-qualified bidders, along with their potential financiers, will have the opportunity to raise inquiries and submit proposals for improvements to the draft bidding terms and conditions, as well as the PPP contract. This stage will last for one month, with the possibility of an additional one-month extension.
Public Tender: once the competitive dialogue stage is closed, the MOPC will call for a public tender for the award of the PPP contract. Only pre-qualified bidders will be allowed to participate in said public tender.
