Ares (2021)27359 60 - 23/04/2021 Subject: EUOSHA/2021/OP/F/SE/0142 Provision of communication and event services in 3 lots  Dear Madam/Sir,  The European Agency for Safety and Health at Work (EU-OSHA) (referred to below as  the contracting  authority ) is planning to award the contracts resulting from the above procurement procedure. The  procurement documents consist of the contract notice, this invitation letter, the draft contract and tender  specifications with their respective annexes. All documents are available at the following TED  eTendering website 1 :  https://etendering.ted.europa.eu/cft/cft-display.html?cftId=8274  Economic operators interested in this contract are invited to submit a tender in one of the official  languages of the European Union. Tenders must be submitted exclusively via the electronic submission system (eSubmission) available  from the above website 2  and accessible on the Funding and Tenders Opportunities portal (F&T portal) 3 .  Tenders submitted in any other way (e.g. e-mail or by letter) will be disregarded. In order to submit a tender using eSubmission, economic operators (each member of the group in the  case of a joint tender) will need to register in the European Commission's Participant Register - an online  register of organisations participating in EU calls for tenders or proposals. On registering each  organisation obtains a Participant Identification Code (PIC, 9-digit number) which acts as its unique  identifier in the above register. Instructions on how to create a PIC can be found on this page. Economic  operators already registered in the Participant Register shall reuse their existing PICs when preparing  tenders in eSubmission.  The time-limit for receipt of tenders is indicated under Heading IV.2.2 of the contract notice where local  time shall be understood as local time at the contracting authority's location (the location indicated under  Heading I.1 of the contract notice). A tender received after the time-limit for receipt of tenders will be rejected. The submission receipt  provided by eSubmission with the official date and time of receipt of the submission (timestamp)  constitutes proof of compliance with the time-limit for receipt of tenders $^{4}$. Tenderers must ensure that their submitted tenders contain all the information and documents required  by the contracting authority at the time of submission as set out in the procurement documents.
