Architecture tenders and design competitions in Cyprus

Cypriot public buyers procure under the Public Procurement Law of 2016 (Law 73(I)/2016). Major public buildings are often commissioned through architectural competitions run under the rules of the Cyprus Scientific and Technical Chamber (ETEK), while others are tendered as design services or as design-and-build contracts. TenderDesk's Cypriot feed comes from TED, which carries the contracts above the EU thresholds.

Questions

Where are architecture tenders published in Cyprus?
On the eProcurement System (eprocurement.gov.cy), run by the Treasury of the Republic, where public buyers publish their tenders and where the documents are downloaded and the bids submitted, and in TED for contracts above the EU thresholds. TenderDesk shows the TED notices, scored so the real design commissions come first.
How do architectural competitions work in Cyprus?
They follow ETEK's regulations for architectural competitions: open or, exceptionally, limited competitions, in one or two stages, with anonymous entries judged by a jury in which architects are the majority. The architect members are proposed by ETEK and the Cyprus Architects Association, and the first prize winner is normally commissioned to design the project.
Can an architecture firm from another country bid in Cyprus?
Yes. Public tenders in the EU are open to firms from other member states on equal terms, and many teams pair a foreign lead with a local partner. Check the tender's requirements for professional registration (the Cyprus Scientific and Technical Chamber, ETEK) and for the language of the submission.
