The ITSO must be capable of being accepted without further negotiation. If deemed applicable and capable of being accepted, the Authority may choose not to proceed with further negotiations and award immediately to a Tenderer based on the Most Advantageous Tender (MAT) criteria\n3.4.3.\tStage 3 - Invitation to Participate in Negotiation (ITPN)\nBased on the evaluation of Stage 2 and if a contract is not awarded, Tenderers may be shortlisted by the Authority and invited for further negotiation/dialogue. The purpose of the negotiations will be to consider the ITSO responses submitted by the Tenderers with a view to improving the content of the Final Tender.\nPoints of clarification provided by the Authority during the negotiation will be shared with all Tenderers on an anonymous basis with the exception of commercially sensitive information which will not be shared.\nTenderers may be asked to submit revised versions of responses to questions following the negotiation phase. Interim submissions will not be evaluated by the Authority but are intended to form the basis of further negotiations with the Tenderers if required\n3.4.4.\tStage 4 \u2013 Final Tender \nOnce the Authority is satisfied with the negotiated terms with Tenderers within the ITPN stage, the remaining shortlisted Tenderers will be asked to submit their Final Tenders, which must be capable of acceptance.
