Răspunsul autorității: We communicate the following: The economic operator is the tenderer participating in the procurement procedure. In the case of submitting the tender in the electronic system, the non-resident economic operator may associate with a resident economic operator empowered as a representative with the right to place and sign the tender. A national representative may be empowered not only to submit the offer but also to represent the interests of the non-resident company, by signing documents and other interests. The national representative is empowered only to defend the interests in the electronic system, for example: signing the offer, documents, submitting the offer in the system, etc. Regarding the procurement contract, it is to be signed on paper, which is outside the system, therefore, the process of signing the contract takes place directly between the Buyer (NBM) and the non-resident economic operator, without intermediaries. The contracting authorities do not have information and practices for the submission of tenders in the electronic system by non-resident economic operators, therefore please consult the address: https://mf.gov.md/ro/ministerul-finan%C8%9Belor/structura and https://achizitii.md/ro/public/tender/21037347/questions.
