<strong>ESA</strong>/REG/001, rev.2<br />

Page 29<br />

If provision is made for this in the call for expression of interest or the Invitation to<br />

Tender, the Agency may provide for this procedure to take place in successive steps in<br />

order to reduce the number of solutions to be discussed during the first stage. This<br />

selection will be achieved through the application of the selection criteria established in<br />

the call for expression of interest or the Invitation to Tender.<br />

4. In the second stage of the tendering, the Agency shall invite those economic operators<br />

who have been retained to submit a tender in response to a restricted competition based<br />

on a new single set of specifications except in the case foreseen under paragraph 1.c)<br />

above .<br />

In formulating those specifications, the Agency may delete or modify any aspect,<br />

originally set forth in the solicitation documents for the first stage, of the technical or<br />

quality characteristics of the supplies or services to be procured, and any evaluation<br />

criterion originally set forth in those documents for evaluating and comparing tenders<br />

and for ascertaining the successful tender, and may add new characteristics or criteria.<br />

If the Agency rather than issuing a new set of documents for the second stage uses the<br />

solicitation documents used for the first stage, any such deletion, modification or<br />

addition shall be clearly identified and communicated to retained economic operators in<br />

the invitation to submit final tenders.<br />

The issuing, receipt and evaluation procedure for the second stage shall be done in<br />

accordance with the applicable provisions of these Regulations.<br />

5. The procedure for the two-stage tendering shall be established by means of an<br />

implementing instruction.
