We use an eTendering system called e-sourcingni for many of our procurement exercises.
No hard copy documents are issued for eTenders and all communications with us should be conducted via e-sourcingni.
How to express an interest in an eTender
1. Register your company on the eSourcing portal (this is only required once) - Go to the eSourcing Portal: https://e-sourcingni.bravosolution.co.uk and click the link to register - accept the terms and conditions and click “continue” - Enter your correct business and user details - Note the username you chose and click “Save” when complete - You will shortly receive an email with your unique password (please keep this secure)
