What Is a Procurement Calendar (Hankintakalenteri, Finland)?
This is a Finnish procurement term. A tool or service for tracking upcoming and ongoing public procurements from a single place.
What is a procurement calendar for?
Seeing what is coming before the notice is published, so bid resources can be planned instead of reacting to a deadline that is already running.
Where does the information come from?
Published prior information notices and procurement notices, authorities' own published procurement plans, and the expiry dates of existing contracts.
Is it the same as tender monitoring?
Closely related. Monitoring catches notices as they are published; a procurement calendar looks further ahead at what is planned or due for renewal.
