Questions

Where are architecture tenders published in Portugal?
In the Diário da República and on BASE, the public contracts portal, plus TED for contracts above the EU thresholds. The documents and the submission are on the electronic platform named in each notice. TenderDesk gathers BASE and TED in one feed.
What is a concurso de conceção?
A design competition: teams submit a design, usually anonymously, and a jury ranks them. The winner is then normally invited to negotiate the contract to develop the project.
Can an architecture firm from another country bid in Portugal?
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 Ordem dos Arquitectos) and for the language of the submission.
