Adding invitationsForInterestDispatchDate and invitationsForBidsDispatchDate to Tender #38

Closed ColinMaudry closed 5 years ago

ColinMaudry commented 5 years ago

TED IV.2.3) Estimated date of dispatch of invitations to tender or to participate to selected candidates (if this information is known)

Both dates are consequently mixed, when eForms distiguish them as BT-631 and BT-130.

Possible structure:

{
"Tender":
{
        "invitationsForInterestDispatchDate": {
          "title": "Invitation for interest dispatch date",
          "description": "The estimated date of dispatch of the invitations to confirm interest.",
          "type": "string",
          "format": "date-time"
        },
        "invitationsForBidsDispatchDate": {
          "title": "Invitation for bids dispatch date",
          "description": "The estimated date of dispatch of the invitations to submit bids in two (or more) stage procedures.",
          "type": "string",
          "format": "date-time"
        }
}

From reading the law, an invitation to confirm interest is only used in the case were the PIN (that preceded the CN) was used as a means for calling competition. I'll update the guidance so that it's clearer when each is used.

jpmckinney commented 5 years ago

Having read the law again, I don't think TED has a field regarding "The estimated date of dispatch of the invitations to confirm interest." It only has the other two kinds of invitations:

These are both "Dispatch Invitation Tender" in eForms, which I'd consider to be semantically the same as the start of the tender/submission period (or similar) for the second stage.

I'll map it to tender.secondStage.invitationDate.
