Candidates must register using a valid e-mail address. This address is the only means of transmitting to the candidate any changes to the file or additional information that may arise during the procedure. It is therefore the candidate's responsibility to check his e-mail regularly, and to ensure that the address used for exchanges with PLACE [email protected] is accessible or whitelisted in order to pass the filters of the proxy servers in place in his company. Applicants must take steps to ensure that correspondence with the service can be processed within a timeframe compatible with the procedure. To this end, they are asked to provide several e-mail addresses if no company mailbox is available. In all cases, the administration cannot be held responsible for the non-receipt of elements transmitted during the consultation. The contracting authority requires documents to be signed at the tender stage. The principle adopted is the transmission of applications and offers by electronic means. Electronic transmission is mandatory for the entire consultation process. For each stage of the procedure, candidates and bidders apply the same mode of transmission to all the documents they send to the purchaser (article R. 2332-11 of the French Public Order Code). Any envelope received after the deadline will not be accepted. Electronic bids: Electronic bids can be submitted via the French government's purchasing platform at www.marches-publics.gouv.fr . Details of how to register and submit bids are given on the government purchasing platform. In the event of difficulties, telephone and e-mail assistance is available to companies. In the help section, a company user guide is available to answer any questions operators may have. For this mode of transmission, the attention of candidates is drawn to the following points: - Digital certificate Documents sent electronically must be digitally signed using a digital certificate that complies with current regulations on electronic signatures in public procurement. Please note that there is a time limit for issuing the certificate. If the applicant does not use the signature tool offered by the government purchasing platform, he/she will provide, free of charge, the procedure for verifying the validity of the signature. - Backup copy Operators have the option of submitting a backup copy on a physical electronic medium or on paper within the time allowed for the submission of electronic applications or tenders. The sealed envelope must be legibly marked "copie de sauvegarde". It must be sent by post to the address given in point 1.1 of the invitation. - Format Documents sent must be compressed. The administration must be able to read and print the files received. For this purpose, it is recommended to use version 2010 of the office pack or versions compatible with it, all PC compatible. If necessary, the applicant should consult the administration to ensure that other formats can be used. Language In accordance with article R. 2343-19 of the French Public Procurement Code, documents submitted in support of applications in a language other than French must be accompanied by a translation into French that conforms to the original. In the event of contradiction between the two documents, the French version shall prevail.
