The tender, classified under the Pre-feasibility study and technological demonstration category within the services industry, was conducted through a direct procurement method with a single tender action below threshold.

This tender presents opportunities for businesses capable of delivering cutting-edge profiling technology in feasibility studies. However, it does not favour small or voluntary and community sector enterprises for participation. Businesses specialising in pre-feasibility and technological demonstrations, particularly those like Createc who excel in this domain, could effectively compete for such procurement processes. Engaging in contracts like this not only aids financial growth but also strengthens business visibility within governmental projects and showcases expertise in specialised technological studies.
