What Is a Below-Threshold Tender Notice?
This is a UK procurement term. The notice used to advertise a regulated below-threshold contract — one under the main thresholds but still subject to the Act's lighter Part 6 rules.
When must a below-threshold tender notice be published?
When a buyer advertises a regulated below-threshold contract above certain values, which differ between central government and other buyers.
Where is it published?
On the Central Digital Platform.
What is different about below-threshold competitions?
They follow lighter rules, and buyers cannot run a separate shortlisting stage based on conditions of participation.
