Italy: procurement requirements evidence for a foreign bidder

Evidence on bidding into Italy as a foreign supplier: each requirement with the instrument or portal rule it was read from, that source's date, and the date it was last re-checked.

Evidence state

Every requirement below names the instrument or the portal rule it was read from, that source's date, and the date it was last re-checked.

Where the sources disagree

A rule on paper and what happened in practice are different facts. Both are stated; neither is reconciled away.
