I had a quick look and also couldn't find anything. There was the news in December that the EC postponed its guideline on ICT standardisation and procurement: https://joinup.ec.europa.eu/news/ec-postpones-its-guideline-ict-standardisation-and-procurement But even if this guidline was in place, it only suggests that "open source may be considered" as far as I coud see by skimming through it. Speaking of procurement, there is also the "Guideline on public procurement of Open Source Software": https://joinup.ec.europa.eu/sites/default/files/studies/OSS-procurement-guideline-public-final-June2010-EUPL-FINAL.pdf Hope this helps.
