Guidelines for the preparation of a procurement agency information file

Introduction:

A procurement agency information file (PAIF) is a document prepared by the procurement agency (PA) that contains specific and factual information about the operations carried out at the named site including any closely integrated operations of the PA.

A PAIF should be succinct and, if possible, should not exceed 25 A4 pages.

The PA should give a short description of its activities under each of the following headings. Where appropriate, supportive documentation should be appended.

1. General information:

1.1 Brief information on the PA (including name, address and contact details).

1.2 Activities of PA as licensed by the national authority (including those listed below). (Attach a copy of the licence. Where a licence is not available, please state reasons.)
