How often this buyer tenders this kind of work
Tactics
When this buyer has awarded in this sector, usually 7 or more bids came in. Many compete here — price and references decide. (Based on 99 completed awards — not a statement about this procedure.)
This procedure allows 47 days between publication and deadline — typical in this country is 32 (median of 12,485 procedures). Much more generous than usual — time for a thorough bid rather than a quick one.
The deadline falls on a Monday — your last full working day is the Friday before. Have evidence and guarantees together by Thursday.
