The procurement planning stage covers the preparation of the documentation needed to publish a ‘notice’ (or advertisement) in the Official Journal of the European Union (OJEU) – a requirement for all European contract tenders above a certain value.
Procurement planning will often take place in tandem with developing the outline business case (OBC, Stage 3) but the OJEU notice cannot be published until the OBC has been approved.
