To find current tenders of ministries and public bodies, use the Government Contracts Portal. The portal is used to publish notices, download documents and submit electronic bids. Registration conditions and the requirements of each tender follow what the portal and the tender documents publish at the time.
The official portal

It applies to procurement and contracts of state bodies, local administration units, public authorities and other entities the law covers. Eligibility, specifications, guarantees and the award method for each tender are set out in that tender’s documents, which govern.
