TENDERS
To invite bids for a project, or to accept a formal offer such as a takeover bid.
Tender usually refers to the process whereby governments and financial
institutions invite bids for large projects that must be submitted within a finite
deadline. The term also refers to the process whereby shareholders submit their
shares or securities to a takeover offer.
For projects or procurement, most institutions have a well-defined tender
process, as well as processes to govern the opening, evaluation and final
selection of the vendors. This ensures that the selection process is fair and
transparent.

A contract or tender document in construction industry is an agreement


between two parties which they intend to be legally binding with respect to the
obligations of each party to the other and their liabilities. The contract thus
binds the contractor to construct the works as defined, and the employer to pay
for them in the manner and timing set out.
As civil engineering works are often complex, involving the contractor in many
hundreds of different operations using many different materials and
manufactured items, including employment of a wide variety of specialists, the
documents defining the contract are complex and comprehensive. The task of
preparing them for tendering therefore warrants close attention to detail and
uniformity of approach, so as to achieve a coherent set of documents which
forms an unambiguous and manageable contract. A typical set of documents
prepared for tendering will include the following.

Instructions to tenderers
These tell the contractor where and when he must deliver his tender and what
matters he must fill in to provide information on guarantees, bond, proposed
methods for construction, etc. The instructions may also inform him of items
which will be supplied by the employer, and sources of materials he should use
(e.g. source of filling for earthworks construction, etc.).

General and particular conditions of contract


The general conditions of contract may comprise any of the standard forms of
contract. The particular conditions adopted may contain amendments or
additions that the employer wishes to make to the standard conditions. Usually
the standard conditions (which are available in printed form) are not reproduced
in the tender documents but they will be named by specific reference and a
schedule will show what changes have been made to them.

The specification
This describes in words the works required, the quality of materials and
workmanship to be used, and methods of testing to be adopted to ensure
compliance. The specification usually starts with a description of the works to be
constructed, followed by all relevant data concerning the site, access, past

records of weather, etc. and availability of various services such as water


supply, electric power, etc.

Bill of quantities or schedule of prices


These form an itemized list covering the works to be constructed, against each
item of which the tenderer has to quote a price. A bill of quantities shows the
number or quantity of each item and its unit of measure, the rate per unit of
quantity quoted by the tenderer, and the consequent total price for that item.
These permits re-measure according to the actual quantity done under each
item. Some bills contain many hundreds of items, classified by trade or
according to a standard method of measurement; other bills contain a less
number of items. A schedule of prices may comprise a series of lump sums or it
may call for rates only, but can list provisional quantities which are estimated,
that is, uncertain. They would be used, for instance, for a contract for sinking
boreholes, items being provided for boring in stages of depth, the total depth to
which any hole has to be sunk not being known in advance.

Tender and appendices


The tender sets out the formal wording which comprises the tenderers offer to
undertake the contract, the tenderer having to enter the sum price he offers.
The appendices to tender will contain other matters defining the contract terms
and which the tenderer confirms he accepts in making his offer, such as time for

completion of the works, damages for failure to complete on time, minimum


amount of insurances, completion of bond, etc. There may be other matters
concerning the basis of his offer he is required to supply, such as currency
exchange rates (for international contracts) or sources of materials.

The contract drawings


These should provide as complete a picture as possible of all the works to be
built. The more complete the contract drawings are, the more accurately the
contractor can price the work, and the less likelihood there is that variations and
extra payments will be necessary. However, it is not necessary at tender stage
to provide every detailed drawing that will ultimately be required (such as all
concrete reinforcement drawings) so long as the contract drawings provided to
tenderers show quite clearly what is required.
On small jobs all the foregoing documents may be combined in one volume; but
on most jobs at least two and sometimes three or more volumes will be
necessary. A tenderer is usually sent a second copy of the instructions to
tenderers, bill of quantities, tender and appendices, so that he can keep one
copy of what he has bid.
