How to bid
NEPO intends to publish an Invitation to Tender via the Open eTendering system. Suppliers wishing to be considered for this Framework must register their expression of interest and submit a tender through the Open eTendering system at https://open-uk.org/ Tenders must be submitted via the link above. Submissions via email or post will not be accepted. Guidance for how to create an account, search for opportunities and respond is included within the Suppliers Hub. If you require further support please email open.support@nepo.org
Submission happens on the buyer's own portal, which needs an account with them. We never handle your portal credentials.
