A tender is a submission made by a prospective supplier in response to an invitation to tender issued by an employer. It makes an offer for the supply of goods or services.
		+
		+	There are two purposes in tendering:
		+
		+	# To select a suitable contractor at a suitable time
		+	# The offer of a price is required from the contractor at an appropriate time. This offer will be the basis for the ensuing contract.
		+
		+	Along with the conditions, the contract drawings and bills of quantities (if used) make up the contractual agreements.
		+
		+	There is no direct relationship between the type of tendering procedure and the form of the contractual agreement. The tendering process marks the beginning of the contractual relationship.
		+
		+	Main methods:
		+
		+	1. Open Tendering
		+
		+	2. Selective tendering - single or two stage
		+
		+	3. Nomination / negotiation
		+
		+	4. Serial
		+

−	~~What are the advantages~~ of ~~single stage tendering?~~	+	Advantages of Single Stage:

	* Ensures only capable and approved firms submit tenders		* Ensures only capable and approved firms submit tenders
−	* ~~Tends~~ to ~~reduce~~ the ~~aggregate (~~whole) cost of tendering	+	* Competitive pricing - the full scope of work is priced in competition with other bidders
−	* ~~Client gets a lump sum~~ for the ~~whole works~~	+	* Risk allocation - the client and the contractor have a clear statement of risk allocation in the contract. Avoidance of cost escalation during second-stage tendering. The contractor is not given an opportunity to revisit the pricing.
		+	* Cost certainty - provides the client with an early contractual commitment on price for the whole works.
		+	* Overall speed of the project - timescales are known.
		+
		+	Disadvantages of Single Stage:
		+
		+	* Design team do not have the benefit of the contractors experience at a stage in the design when it would be most useful.
		+	* Issues such as continuity of work, production cost savings, build ability and subletting specialist items can have a significant impact on the final price of a project.
		+	* The price is only as good as the information provided.
		+	* Competitive pressure may encourage tenders to take risk in their pricing.
		+	* Sequential design and construction removes opportunities for acceleration of the overall programme.
		+
		+	Problems with Single Stage tender:
		+
		+	Proceeding to tender with unresolved design issues will eventually result in:
		+
		+	* Communicating different levels of design completion in tender documentation.
		+	* Incomplete or contradictory tender information
		+	* Errors or omissions in the contractors tender
		+	* Qualifications or discrepancies in the contractors submission that are now identified prior to the acceptance of tenders.
		+
		+	Successful single stage tendering include:
		+
		+	* Limiting the contractors risk by undertaking design reviews for completeness, build ability and co-ordination before issue of tender; preparing comprehensive tender documentation; minimising work that will be designed during construction
		+	* Selecting the right contractor by building enough time into the programme to allow for post tender evaluation of tenders
		+	* Managing the design process to deliver certainty by allowing time in the pre-construction programme for the completion of design work and production information
		+	* Design responsibility - clear communication of the extent of the design responsibility allocated to the contractor and making sure designers stay strictly within their scope of work

		+
		+	Reasons for selecting a two-stage tender:
		+
		+	* Achieving early appointment of the main contractor ahead of the completion of the design, and potentially a quicker start on site
		+	* Securing the involvement of a contractor for pre-contract services on a competitive basis, to obtain input on build ability, sequencing and subcontractor selection.
		+	* Transferring a greater degree of design and other construction risk to the contractor
		+	* If the client has a genuine need to follow a two-stage route, because of programme constraint
