You are free to submit further references beyond the required minimum number. Since the exchange of an erroneous reference by a conditional reference submitted after the end of the tendering period is not possible and, in the relevant cases, entails the exclusion of the tenderer, the Procurement Office of the BMI recommends that a list of further references considered as conditional be submitted.
