Also known as an invitation to tender (ITT), or a call for bids (CFB) or a request for tenders (RFT), a tender is simply a formal, structured procedure for generating competing offers from different potential suppliers or contractors, called bidders, that are looking to obtain an award of business activity in works, supply, or service contracts, often from companies who have been previously assessed for suitability by means of a supplier questionnaire (SQ) or pre-qualification questionnaire (PQQ).

The real estate platform, mdaglobalrealestate.com, is provided with nore than 20 languages.

As a general rule, the public sector is always structured with transparent tendering procedures, allowing all tenders to be opened to eligible business. This procedure, commonly known as Open Procedure in many countries, permits any business to respond to a tender, access all related documents, and bid for the contract or the project. There are other procedures, which involve qualification stages such as pricing and quality procedures. 

The Open Procedure can be used freely in any circumstances and for any type of contract and Framework Agreement. All interested bidders may submit their bid.

However, in some cases, it can be beneficial to choose a procedure where the number of the bidders can be reduced at the selection stage based on their capability and capacity, especially if the Tender Organiser or the Buyer does not have enough resources (e.g. time, complete working team, etc.) to organise and conduct a full Open Procedure.

Using the Open Procedure will depend upon the number of tenders received and the nature of the evaluation criteria. If the Organisation receives a large number of tenders, the evaluation of them is likely to be time consuming.

The Open procedure is a one-stage procurement process that covers exclusion grounds, selection criteria and award criteria. An Open procedure means that any business can respond to a Tender or Contract Notice, request or download the related Procurement Documents, and submit a bid. All tenders must be evaluated in line with the methodology and criteria set out in the procurement documents.

Use of the Open procedure

The Open procedure is best used where:

• • The requirements are typically straightforward, with a relatively simple Selection and Award Process; and
  • It is anticipated that only a small number of Bidders will respond to the Tender.

Advantages of the Open procedure

• • Increased competition due to the potentially high volume of responses
  • Organisations of all sizes have the opportunity to submit a tender, increasing the opportunity for a number of innovative proposals or solutions
  • Advantageous for simple and straightforward requirements (e.g. stationery) Providing full tender documentation (at the outset) enables candidates to make an informed decision as to whether they can satisfy the requirements, or choose to discount themselves from the competition
  • Overall timescale reduced (no pre-qualification stage)

Disadvantages of the Open procedure

• • Resource implications of a potentially lengthy tender evaluation (due to a high volume of responses)
  • Increases the risk of challenge (more responses and time invested/transaction costs in preparing a tender as opposed to a Selection Questionnaire)
  • Poor quality bids (due to the fact there is an increased chance of being unsuccessful and a limited timescale)
  • No opportunity to discuss or refine bids

In the context of negotiations, a framework agreement is an agreement between two parties that recognizes that the parties have not come to a final agreement on all matters relevant to the relationship between them, but have come to agreement on enough matters to move forward with the relationship, with further details to be agreed to in the future.

In the context of procurement, a framework agreement is an agreement between one or more businesses or organisations, "the purpose of which is to establish the terms governing contracts to be awarded during a given period, in particular with regard to price and, where appropriate, the quantity envisaged

These agreements give Buyers (or Bid OrganiserS) access to a range of qualified bidders or Suppliers, allowing them to avoid the need to continuously re-bid. Only the Bidders or Suppliers who register interest before the deadline may secure a place. Winning a place on a framework can result in multiple contracts over the duration of the framework.

A Dynamic Purchasing System or simply called as DPS, is an electronic system that can be established to purchase goods and services which are:

• • commonly used by your Business, and
  • readily available on the market

Using a DPS provides a simple, straightforward form of access to contracts for suppliers. When applied appropriately, it is a cost-effective method that can limit the need for complex tender processes and benefit both Bidder (or Supplier) and Tendering Company or Organisation. The approach lends itself well to self-limiting marketplaces, where new activity is to be encouraged.

This is a tender or a procurement of goods, services, facilities or construction in circumstances, where the value is higher than the value of the public procurement thresholds and must be published on the government portal.

A low-value tender is a tender with a value lower than the public procurement thresholds and is much smaller than a High-value tender, which makes it a great starting point for businesses entering the market for the first time. The procedures for low-value notices are usually simpler, and bidding for these provides suppliers with valuable experience to help them go after high-value tenders in the future.

A Competitive Dialogue Procedure (CDP) is a multi-stage tender process.

Typically, Expressions of Interest (EOI) are shortlisted at the pre-qualification stage and participants invited to initial dialogue sessions. The International Competitive Dialogue procedure of the Europe Union, herein called the OJEU process, is conducted in successive stages, with the option of reducing the number of bidders at each stage accordingly. Following closure of dialogue, final tenders will be invited and a preferred bidder identified.
During the OJEU process, the council will be open to innovation and current market initiatives as bids are refined.

Use of the Competitive Dialogue procedure

The Competitive Dialogue procedure is best used where the requirement is complex or not fully definable.

Advantages of the Competitive Dialogue procedure

• • Restricts the number of Bidders (or Suppliers) invited to tender (making the tender evaluation more manageable)
  • Allows for more market innovation.
  • Enables a best fit solution to be developed through detailed dialogue

Disadvantages of the Competitive Dialogue procedure

• • Increased timescales
  • Added resource cost and potentially high burden for both suppliers (making the contract opportunity appear unattractive to some) and Council
  • Use of process has to be justified

This reservation is not possible in the Competitive Dialogue Procedure (CDP). That said, the competitive dialogue procedure contains more flexibility around negotiation with the winning bidder (provided this does not modify the essential aspects of the contract or procurement or amount to a distortion of competition). It is not possible to negotiate following submission of final tenders if you are using the competitive with negotiation process.

Advantages of the Competitive Procedure with Negotiation

Can cut straight to award if negotiation is not required following initial bids

Disadvantages of the Competitive Procedure

Cannot negotiate detailed final terms with the winning bidder once selected.

• • Stage One (Selection) - Bidders or Suppliers are alerted to express their interest to a contract opportunity by obtaining and submitting a Selection Questionnaire (SQ); this will be used to establish their capability, experience and suitability etc. The purpose of the SQ is to select a shortlist of 5 (or more) BidderS or Suppliers that are likely to meet the tender requirements.
  • Stage Two (Award) - Shortlisted Bidders or Suppliers that meet the selection criteria are then invited to bid. All bids are evaluated in line with the methodology and award criteria set out in the tender documentation.

Use of the Restricted procedure

The Restricted procedure is best used where:

• • It is anticipated that a large number of suppliers will respond to the advertised Contract Notice; or
  • The requirements are typically complex, with a relatively detailed Selection and Award evaluation process.

Advantages of the Restricted procedure

• • Restricts the number of organisations invited to tender (making the tender evaluation more manageable)
  • Enables a detailed Selection assessment (i.e. Stage one of the procedure)
  • Helps improve the quality of bids (due to the fact there is an increased chance of a bidder being successful and the contracting authority has selected their shortlist of "pre-qualified" suppliers)

Disadvantages of the Restricted procedure

• • Speculative SQ's being submitted due to the fact that the full tender documentation may be unavailable at the Selection stage
  • Increased timescales
  • Added resource cost and potentially unnecessary burden for suppliers (making the contract opportunity appear unattractive to some)
  • No opportunity to discuss / refine bids

The term bid refers to an offer made by an individual or corporation to purchase an asset (residential, industrial and commercial properties), including real estate products (Building materials, equipment and decoration items) and services in various markets such as mdaglobalrealestate.com, the global real estate platform or real estate marketplace of MDAICReal. Bids may also be made by companies, organisations or nonprofits that compete for project contracts. When a Buyer (or Tendering Organisation) makes a bid, they stipulate how much they're willing to pay for the asset along with how much they are willing to purchase.

Other Types of Bids
There is more than one way to make a bid. As mentioned above, the different types of bids depend on where the offer is being made. Some of the most common types of bids are Auction Bids, Online Bidding and Sealed-Bids.

NOTES

• • A bid is an offer made by an investor, trader, or dealer in an effort to buy an asset or to compete for a contract.
  • The spread between the bid and the ask is a reliable indicator of supply and demand for the financial instrument.
  • Market makers are vital to the efficiency and liquidity of the marketplace.
  • Bids can be made live, online, through brokers, or through a closed bidding process.
  • Types of bids include auction bids, online bids, and sealed bids. 

Buyers (or Tendering Organisation) and Sellers (Bidders) keep the real estate market going. Each participant facilitates the purchase and sale of assets (e.g. residential properties, industrial properties, commercial properties, building materials, building equipment, decoration items, etc.). Sellers are entities that provide assets for purchase. Buyers are those who want to purchase goods or services. These two parties normally come together at different venues to conduct their business, including tenders, auctions (live, online and sealed) and retail outlet.

The bid process depends on the market through which these goods and services are sold. For instance, companies make bids in order to win contracts for jobs. The bidding process involves sending out packages to interested parties.

These contracts may be issued by governments or large corporations for infrastructure, construction, and other projects in a variety of different industries, such as:

• • Public safety
  • Information technology
  • Education
  • Social services
  • Consulting and management
  • Healthcare
  • Art and recreation

NOTE: In some cases, bids that are made at an auction may be made in person or online, while investors may make bids through their internal sales department, brokers or agents. Some bids take place in secret, usually through a sealed process. This process allows for fair and conflict-free bidding.

There are a few different ways to bid on government contracts. You may have to register your company with the appropriate agency or website in order to compete for these jobs. Most government contracts are open for bids through a sealed-bid process, which means you can't see how your competition is bidding.

You can bid for the contract yourself through government bidding portals, which can often take a lot of time. You can also use a bidding service, which can provide you with information on various government contracts available in your area.

Auctions are forums that bring together multiple buyers who compete for certain assets, such as livestock, home goods, properties, property tax liens, and art. These venues are usually held in person but the rise in technology has made online auctions a reality.

Buyers who participate in auctions bid against each other in order to win the asset through an open bidding process. They do so by placing competitive bids in an attempt to beat out the other buyers. The person who bids the highest amount wins the auction.

Online bidding sites work just like traditional auctions. Sites like eBay, eBid, and QuiBids allow buyers to congregate in a virtual arena and make bids for products and services of their choosing.

For instance, someone may be selling a pair of designer sunglasses on eBay and starts an auction with a minimum price. Interested buyers can bid on the item with an amount they wish to pay until one person's bid is accepted by the seller. These sites normally require buyers to set up accounts and may also require payment card information.

Unlike the two types of bids noted above, participants in some venues aren't privy to how much their competitors are bidding. This is the case with sealed-bid auctions.

A sealed-bid auction happens when multiple bidders are given envelopes in which they place their bids. The envelopes are then sealed so no one bidder can knowingly outbid the other, making the outcome fair. The highest bidder is the one who wins. This type of bidding normally takes place for contracts or real estate sales.

NOTES:

• • A sealed-bid auction is a type of auction in which bids are not viewed until the auction date.
  • The bids are sealed, often physically in an envelope, and are all opened at once.
  • Sealed-bid auctions are generally used in bidding for government contracts.
  • Unlike an open bid, where buyers can make multiple bids and compete against each other actively, in a sealed-bid auction, they only get once chance.

The sale of real estate may sometimes be conducted through sealed-bid auctions. The process for conducting such an auction can include public advertisements showing that the property is up for bid and what the deadline and parameters are for submitting bids.

For such real estate auctions, a variety of considerations can come into play. The property should have enough demand to attract a broad field of bidders to increase the potential for a higher return. A small pool of bidders might still present worthwhile offers, but the options are also limited in such an instance.

From a certain perspective, it can be counterproductive for the seller to release such information as the assessed valuation of a property. The concern is that bidders would use that information to limit the value of their bids. Furthermore, posting a minimum bid amount might set expectations on the part of the bidders for how large their bids should be. Bidders naturally are concerned about overspending to win an auction. In a sealed-bid auction, there is an understanding that each bidder shares in that risk.

There can be instances where the highest bid is not chosen by the seller. This may occur if the offers do not meet the seller's needs and expectations. The seller could reject the current bids and then ask for final bids from the two bidders who made the highest offers. The seller might also opt to end the auction and discuss terms with some of the bidders. Such an option may be put into play if the seller believes a more open approach can net better results..

Generally, the original tender notices language is in the local or official language of the country of origin that shall always be translated all the languages of mdaglobalrealestate.com platform. 

The real estate platform, mdaglobalrealestate.com, is provided with nore than 20 languages.

It is generally required in the pre-qualification phase of every tender that bidders should provide following preliminary bid registration documents:

• • Your company's certification of registration, company registration number and tax identification number
  • Your Company's business profile to reference and demonstrate your ability to deliver similar projects
  • Your company's audited accounts for the last 2-3 years.

Not all contracts will require you to have all of the above, but it always help. 

Yes of course. Any nonprofit company or organisation that is ready, willing and able to comply with the rules and regulations and meet the requirements stated within the tender notice and documents can bid for the tender.

Government procurement is fiercely competitive as the government awards the most qualified companies to provide cost-effective products and services. Government contracts have different and more complex bidding requirements than the private sector. Further, government contractors deal with government agencies, while commercial contractors deal with private businesses. Generally, government contracts comply with strict rules and regulations that require you to:

• • register your business and obtain ID Numbers
  • register your business with relevant government agency such as SAM Registration in the US
  • determine yours products and services, and many more.

NOTE: We advise you to always try and provide accurate information and make it appealing with descriptive terms about your business to attract contracting officers and military and civilian government agencies.

Every tender or contract notice provides details on the submission method and process of the tender. Generally, every bid has its own submission method and process, so make sure you always schedule a period of time within which your bid or proposal shall be reviewed, compiled, packaged, sealed and submitted electronically or through courier in time and without delay. Because, you can encounter barriers such as internet failure, computer systems failure, printer problems, or other unexpected technical issues that can delay your submission. 

It generally happens that in a competitive commercial tender, some of bids are rejected or not selected due to uncomplete bid documentation or noncompliance to the established bid rules, or due other reasons. In this case, do not burn your bridges with the Buyers or Tendering organisation, seize on the opportunity to get feedback on your own bid and get as much information on the reason why your bid was rejected or not selected. You may also try and obtain as much information as possible on the winning bid. Generally, bids or proposals are rejected or not selected because of high price and/or low quality. Therefore, ask Buyers (or the Tendering Organisation) for winning bidder's price and other technical and quality questions to improve your bid next time.

If you think that losing out on a business opportunity for four 1-4 years is critical to your business, then you consider the Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS).

A Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) is unlike a traditional framework for the supply of goods, works or services. It is an electronic system, which suppliers can join at any time. An "open market" solution, a DPS is designed to give Buyers (or Tendering Organisations) access to a pool of pre-qualified Bidders (or Suppliers).

Failure in a Tender is part of the process, provided you learn from it and keep bidding on mdaglobalreal.com, the global real estate platform of MDAICReal. Next time will be better.

It is typically scheduled for a period of 4-6 weeks, but this can vary massively depending on the size and complexity of the Project. A full timeline is always provided on the Tender notice or the Invitation to Tender (ITT) from the tender publishing date, bids submission deadline, contract award date, and to contract commencement date. Buyers (or Tendering Organisations) or their procurement department usually work during these dates stated in the Tender documents.

Generally, the Buyer (Tendering Organisation) provides a clear milestone in the Invitation to tender (ITT), specifying all the important dates of the tender from its publishing data to the contract award publishing date, during which all registered Bidders shall be informed about the status of their bid submission, once received by the Buyers (or Tendering Organisation) or their procurement department. Generally, these dates consist of the followings for all types of bids:

• • the tender publishing or advertising date,
  • the bid submission deadline,
  • the bid evaluation date,
  • the publishing date of the bid prequalification results,
  • the publishing date of the bid qualification results, and
  • the publishing date of the winning bid or the contract award.

If the publishing date of the contract award specified in the ITT has passed, then contact directly with the Buyer (or Tendering Organisations) or their procurement department and request for information to your bid you may need for the next bids. However, as a general rule, Buyers (or Tendering Organisation) or their procurement department regularly inform all Bidders about the status of their bid submission and send them a Contract Award Decision Letter though registered e-mail or by post.

Obviously yes. You must know that every tender has its own specific formatting or presentation requirements for bid submissions. Some Buyers (Tendering Organisations) or their procurement department even specify text font style and size, paper size (A4, A3, and A0, etc.), document format (words, pdf, ppt, etc.). While these requirements may seem silly to Suppliers, they can be important and very significant to Buyers (Tendering Organisations). This is an evident procedure, because Buyers uses the best available equipment and technologies they have at hand and readily accessible when needed efficiently cand economically review yours bid and carry out their works. Hence,

if you cannot meet these preliminary basic requirements such as choosing the correct font size as specified in the tender, then you cannot expect Buyers (Tendering Organisation) or their procurement department to properly read and trust your contractual documents or accept your proposed services to meet their exact requirements and needs. It is always important you comply with all the rules and requirement stated and specified in the tender documents, laying emphasis on the quality of the formatting or presentation requirements for bid submissions.
