    Brief

    This is a negotiated procedure procurement with prior call for competition for business and management consultancy services, specifically focused on advertising media buying. Interested suppliers should be prepared to submit their qualifications and experience in media buying strategies, vendor management, campaign planning, and media placement optimization. The negotiated procedure allows the contracting authority to select qualified bidders and engage in direct negotiations regarding scope, pricing, and contract terms. Suppliers must respond to the initial call for competition to be considered for subsequent negotiation phases.
