VOLUME 1 SECTION 1 - INSTRUCTIONS TO TENDERERS PUBLICATION REF.: NEAR/ANK/2021/EA-OP/0084  In submitting a tender, the tenderer accepts in full and without restriction the special and  general conditions governing the contract as the sole basis of this tendering procedure, whatever  its own conditions of sale may be, which it hereby waives.

Failure to submit a tender containing all the required  information and documentation within the deadline will lead to rejection of the tender. No  account can be taken of any reservation in the tender as regards the tender dossier; this may  result in immediate rejection of the tender without further evaluation.  These instructions set out the rules for the submission, selection and implementation of  contracts financed under this call for tenders, in conformity with the provisions of the practical  guide, which is applicable to this call (available on the internet at this address:  http://ec.europa.eu/europeaid/prag/document.do ).
