It is important to note that none of the content of any questions have been amended. The purpose of this version is to provide greater clarity around how bids will be assessed. In order to allow bidders adequate time to participate and complete the Project Specific Questionnaire in line with these amendments, the deadline for receipt of Requests to Participate has been extended to 12:00pm on 22nd June 2026. The indicative procurement timetable has also been amended to reflect this change."
