Open Market Consultation
Procure4Health will implement an Open Market Consultation (OMC) for the four common needs identified by the healthcare public procurers within the Community. The Open Market Consultation will cross-check the findings of the market analysis (prior art) and obtain relevant information from suppliers on existing (or to be developed) technologies. Successful procurement necessitates the early involvement of technology companies. This will be accomplished through a series of webinars and surveys for prospective procurers of the solution to refine the tender specifications.
The challenges identified
What is an OMC for?
- Validate the findings of the Market Analysis and the State-Of-The-Art (SOTA) Analysis and the viability of the set of technical and financial provisions.
- Raise awareness of the industry and relevant stakeholders regarding the upcoming procurement procedure.
- Collect insights from the industry and relevant stakeholders (including users) to fine tune the tender specifications.
