Tactics
When contracts were awarded in this country and sector, usually about 4 bids came in. A normal field for this market. (Based on 236 completed awards — not a statement about this procedure.)
This procedure allows 76 days between publication and deadline — typical in this country is 48 (median of 2,911 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.
