520 |a The EU Public Procurement Directives cover three main types of contract: works, supplies and services including design contests. Some contracts will often contain elements of one or more of the 3 types of contract. The Directives contain specific rules that are used to classify these mixed contracts.

Even if not excluded, contracts will only be subject to the provisions of the Directives where their value exceeds the relevant EU financial threshold.
