hankeavaldus

Hankeavaldus refers to the formal notification or announcement of a public procurement process in Finland. It is a crucial step in ensuring transparency and fair competition within the public sector's purchasing activities. The hankeavaldus is typically published in accordance with the Finnish Public Procurement Act and relevant EU directives.

The purpose of the hankeavaldus is to inform potential suppliers about upcoming procurement opportunities. It includes essential details about the goods, services, or works being sought, including specifications, estimated value, deadlines for submitting tenders, and the criteria for evaluating bids. This publication allows interested companies to prepare and submit their offers, thereby promoting a competitive market.

Hankeavaldus is usually made through official channels, such as the national electronic procurement service or other designated platforms. The timing and content of the announcement are strictly regulated to provide adequate time for suppliers to respond and to ensure that all potential bidders have access to the same information. The process aims to prevent favoritism and to achieve the best possible value for public funds. Failure to adhere to the hankeavaldus requirements can lead to legal challenges and annulment of the procurement process.
