Tenders Are Invited For Market Dialogue Invitation: Food Procurement (Products Distributed Through A Logistics Partner)

You Can Still Have An Influence During The Market Survey Phase! We Want The City Of Turku To Make Quality Purchases And Cooperate With Companies. Thats Why We Want To Do A Market Survey Before Publishing The Actual Procurement Announcement. The Goal Is To Map The Market Of The Acquisition Target And To Get Comprehensive Information About Availability, Implementation Possibilities And Potential Service Providers. This Is An Invitation To A Market Dialogue Regarding The Tender For Foodstuffs Planned By The City Of Turku, The Estimated Contract Period Of Which Starts On June 1, 2026. (Goal) This Announcement Is Not A Procurement Announcement Or A Request For Tender, But An Invitation To A Market Dialogue Aimed At Surveying The Market And Developing Tender Documents For The Procurement. The Invitation Is Not Binding On Those Who Have Answered It. The Answers Have An Impact On The Implementation Of The Procurement And Can Reduce The Need To Ask Questions While The Tender Is In Progress. The Procurement Unit Does Not Undertake To Carry Out The Purchase Based On The Market Survey, And The Presented Descriptions / Specifications Are Not Binding On The Customer. Market Dialogues Are Organized For Each Company Either At Our Office In Turku Or Remotely Via Teams. The Aim Of The Market Dialogue Is To Review The Scheduling And Implementation Of The Future Tender. There Is An Opportunity To Ask Questions In The Market Dialogue. The Information And Perspectives Obtained From The Market Dialogue Are Intended To Be Used In The Preparation Of The Actual Tender. Not Participating In The Market Dialogue Event Does Not Prevent Participation In A Possible Tender, Nor Does Participating In The Market Dialogue Event In Any Way Affect The Bidders Position In The Actual Tender.
