The services to which the procurement relates fall within the category of Services covered by the Light Tough regime (LTR — Regulations 74 — 77) of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 ( the Regulations). As such, the stages of the tender process are subject to a ‘light touch regime.’ Although the Authority intends that the tender process will follow a procedure similar to the open procedure in certain respects, for the avoidance of doubt the Authority is not running the process as though the open procedure applies, and so reserves the right to depart from that procedure at any point. The Authority will of course follow the Treaty-based principles of transparency, fairness and non-discrimination in conducting this procurement.
