administration must be carried out openly, offer opportunities for fair competition, be conducted

with equal treatment to all business operators, require an appropriate and sufficient time for
tendering proposals and proceed with clear evidence and with disclosure of information on

procurement and supplies administration at all stages;

prompted by urgency or has any other justification or necessity, such procurement shall not be
impaired.
