Architecture tenders and design competitions in Latvia

Latvian public buyers procure under the Public Procurement Law (Publisko iepirkumu likums), in force since 2017. Major public buildings are often commissioned through a design competition (metu konkurss), many of them run with the Latvian Association of Architects (LAS). TenderDesk reads IUB and TED, so the national calls that never reach TED are in the feed too.

Questions

Where are architecture tenders published in Latvia?
Notices are published through the Procurement Monitoring Bureau (IUB), and the procedures, with their documents and bids, mostly run on EIS, the national Electronic Procurement System; above the EU thresholds they also appear in TED. TenderDesk reads both and scores every notice so the real design commissions come first.
What role does the Latvian Association of Architects play in competitions?
LAS keeps good-practice guidelines for architecture competitions, reviews competition documents for public and private clients, keeps a list of architects willing to sit on juries, and publicises only the competitions that meet its guidelines.
Can an architecture firm from another country bid in Latvia?
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 (an architect's certificate from the certification centre of the Latvian Association of Architects) and for the language of the submission.
