The Competitive Dialogue procedure is a two-stage process.  It is possible to shorten the number of days for Stage 1 only as outlined below. 

Stage 1 - Expressions of interest
Call for competition to enable potential tenderers to express their interest in participating. The period from publication of the contract notice in the OJEU for suppliers to express an interest in taking part in the tender is 37 days.

Use of electronic notices
Where the contract award notice has been forwarded to the OJEU in an electronic format (in the SIMAP format), the timescales may be reduced by 7 days.  Thus, the 37 days may be reduced to 30 days.

Stage 2 - Submission of tenders
Tenders are submitted after a period of dialogue with the participating suppliers during which different solutions may be developed. When the time comes for the formal submission of tenders, there is no minimum period stipulated however, it must be reasonable and should reflect the complexity of the exercise. 

Contract Award Notice
A contract award notice must be published within 48 days of the contract award.
