    "The live PhilGEPS schedule lists closing on 3 November 2026 at 10:00 a.m. Philippine time; its listing timestamp shows 9:00 a.m. that day. The Invitation to Bid instead gives 28 October (date only) for receipt and 10:00 a.m. that day for opening, which precedes the live closing; no replacement opening date is listed. PhilGEPS also shows two pre-bid times for 16 October: 2:00 p.m. in the Invitation to Bid and 11:00 p.m. in the activity schedule."
