Tactics
When contracts were awarded in this country and sector, usually 5 or more bids came in. Many compete here — price and references decide. (Based on 728 completed awards — not a statement about this procedure.)
This procedure allows 39 days between publication and deadline — typical in this country is 29 (median of 569 procedures). Much more generous than usual — time for a thorough bid rather than a quick one.
