Próximos concursos públicos de + 140 000 €
A EFSA publica um Anúncio de pré-informação (API) para indicar aos operadores económicos que está a planear lançar um concurso público no futuro. A EFSA não publica um API para todos os concursos, e o API tem apenas uma finalidade informativa, não vinculando a EFSA. É uma forma de aumentar a transparência na planificação dos próximos concursos e de permitir que potenciais fornecedores e prestadores de serviços se preparem antecipadamente para apresentarem procedimentos de contratação pública. A EFSA pode igualmente utilizar o API para pedir aos operadores económicos para apresentarem uma manifestação de interesse na participação na pesquisa e análise de mercado ex ante.
Os elementos desta página são atualizados regularmente. No entanto, é possível que um API continue a ser apresentado depois de o concurso público já ter sido publicado. Por este motivo, recomendamos-lhe que consulte sempre a secção Concursos públicos de + 140 000 € onde encontra todos os convites atuais à apresentação de propostas.
Calls for tenders below €143k
For purchases with a value above €15,000 and equal to or below €143,000 EFSA uses the “negotiated procurement procedure” which involves inviting candidates of EFSA's choice to submit an offer. Additionally, as EFSA wants to keep cooperation opportunities as open as possible, it is also possible for you to express an interest in being invited to these negotiated procedures. Just follow the simple procedure below.

2025 EFSA Scientific Cooperation plan
The 2025 EFSA Scientific Cooperation plan provides an overview of the calls for tenders (procurement) and calls for proposals (grants) which EFSA intends to launch during 2025, including indicative title, budget and timing for call launch. This information is indicative and does not constitute an obligation on EFSA to launch any given procedure. When a call is actually launched, it will be advertised both on the EFSA website and the EU Funding & Tenders Portal.
For more information on how to apply to EFSA calls and information on some of the EFSA science opportunities for 2025, further information is available here on the Webinar on funding opportunities in the EFSA 2025 on 6th December 2024.
