 Title of Micro Project: Prepare report on Different websites
available for E-tendering

Rational: Tendering is perceived as a fair method for awarding contracts in both government and
private sector projects, where multiple construction companies compete based on price,
construction period, experience, and quality observed that the principles and guidelines of the
traditional paper-based tendering process have been implemented across various sectors of the
economy.

However, traditional tendering processes are noted to be slow, labor-intensive, and susceptible to
corruption, especially in public sector tendering Consequently, there has been a shift towards E-
Procurement and E-Tendering to streamline and automate the tendering process. According to Ref.
E-Tendering is “the process of submitting, receiving, storing, and making decisions regarding bids,
tenders, or proposals for building projects, products, and services using electronic communication
tools and systems”.

E-Tendering offers benefits including reduced costs and time, simplified procedures, increased
competitiveness of proposals, enhanced tender analysis, improved collaboration among
stakeholders, and decreased corruption .

Despite its benefits, E-Tendering faces significant challenges, such as cyber security threats, a lack
of familiarity among stakeholders, and various barriers to acceptance. Additionally, it is observed
that there has been an increased interest in E-Tendering that has resulted in a surge of research and
publications in the construction sector focusing on the readiness, barriers, drivers, and critical
success factors of E-Tendering in the construction sector .However, they are focused on specific
locations and lack a comprehensive global perspective.

 E Tendering
E-tendering is the electronic process of inviting and submitting bids for public contracts, streamlining procurement by

using digital platforms for efficiency and transparency.

Here's a more detailed explanation:

 What it is:

e-Tendering, or electronic tendering, is the process of using online procurement platforms to solicit bids,

receive proposals, and manage the entire tendering cycle.

 How it works:

 Organizations use online platforms to advertise tenders, allowing potential suppliers to access and review
them.

 Suppliers submit their bids electronically, and the entire process, from bid submission to evaluation, takes place
online.

 Benefits:

 Increased Efficiency: e-Tendering streamlines the procurement process, reducing paperwork and time spent on
manual tasks.

 Broader Reach: Online platforms allow organizations to reach a wider pool of potential suppliers, both locally
and internationally.

 Transparency and Accountability: The online nature of e-Tendering promotes transparency and accountability
in the procurement process.

 Cost Reduction: By automating and streamlining the process, e-Tendering can lead to significant cost savings.

 Improved Compliance: e-Tendering helps organizations ensure compliance with procurement regulations and
guidelines.
 What is the tender process?

A tender is a submission made by a prospective supplier in response to an invitation to tender. It makes an offer for
the supply of goods or services.

In construction, the main tender process is generally the process adopted for the selection and appointment of the main
contractor that will construct the works. However, as procurement routes have become more complex, so tenders may now be
sought for a wide range of goods and services, for example, on a construction management
contract the works are constructed by a number of different trade contractors each contracted to the client, and contractors may
take on additional functions such as design and management. In addition, clients may procure certain goods and
services themselves, rather than through the contractor, and the contractor themselves will procure goods and
services themselves through tender processes.

There is also an increasing tendency for suppliers to be aggregated into single contracts, for example, 'integrated supply teams'
on public projects that may include; the main contractor, designers, sub-contractors, suppliers, facilities managers, and so on.

For more information see: Supply chain.

Types of tender process

Irrespective of the nature of the goods or services that are being sought, the process for securing tenders will generally take one
of a number of different basic forms, described below.

Open tendering

Open tendering allows anyone to submit a tender to supply the goods or services that are required. Generally, an advert will be
placed giving notice that the contract is being tendered, and offering an equal opportunity to any organisation to submit a tender.

On larger projects, there may then be a pre-qualification process that produces a short-list of suitable suppliers who will then be
invited to prepare tenders. This sort of pre-qualification process is not the same as selective tendering (see below).

Open tendering has been criticised for attracting tenders / expressions of interest from large numbers of suppliers, some of whom
may be entirely unsuitable for the contract and as a result it can waste a great deal of time, effort and money. However, open
tendering offers the greatest competition and has the advantage of allowing new or emerging suppliers to try to secure work.
 Selective tendering

Selective tendering only allows suppliers to submit tenders by invitation. A pre-selected list of possible suppliers is prepared that
are known by their track record to be suitable for a contract of the size, nature and complexity required. Consultants or
experienced clients may maintain ‘approved’ lists of prospective suppliers and then regularly review performance to assess
whether suppliers should remain on the list.

Selective tendering can give clients greater confidence that their requirements will be satisfied and should reduce the wasted
effort that can be involved in open tendering. It may be particularly appropriate for specialist or complex contracts, or contracts
where there are only a few suitable firms. However, it can exclude smaller suppliers or those trying to establish themselves in a
new market.

Negotiated tendering

Negotiating tendering involves negotiating with a single supplier, which may be appropriate for highly specialist contracts, or for
extending the scope of an existing contract. It can reduce the costs of tendering and allow early contractor involvement, but the
competitive element is reduced, and unless the structure of the negotiation is clearly set out there is the potential for
an adversarial atmosphere to develop, even before the contract has been awarded.

See Negotiated tendering for more information.

How a Tender Works

As noted above, a tender is a term used in business to refer to an invitation by governments

and other entities to submit a bid for contracts. Most institutions have a well-defined tender
process for projects or procurements. There are also specific processes in place to govern the
opening, evaluation, and final selection of the vendors. This ensures that the selection process
is fair and transparent.

A request for tender is a formal and structured invitation to suppliers to submit competitive bids
to supply raw materials, products, or services.

Because this is a public and open process, laws were created to govern the process to ensure
fair competition among bidders. 12 For example, without laws, bribery and nepotism may
flourish.
 Tender services are available for potential bidders and include a wide range of tenders from
private and public sources. These services include crafting suitable bids, coordinating the
process to ensure deadlines are met, and ensuring compliance with applicable laws.

Process of E- Tendering

The tendering process involves a formal invitation to suppliers to submit bids for goods,
services, or projects, followed by evaluation and contract award, aiming for transparency and
fair competition.

Here's a more detailed breakdown of the tendering process:

s1. Pre-Tender Preparation:

 Identify Project Needs:

Determine the specific requirements, scope, and budget for the project or procurement.

 Research and Market Analysis:

Understand the market, identify potential suppliers, and assess their capabilities.

 Develop Tender Documents:

Create a clear and comprehensive tender document outlining project requirements,

specifications, evaluation criteria, and submission guidelines.

2. Tender Announcement and Submission:

 Issue Invitation to Tender (ITT):

Publicly announce the tender, providing potential bidders with access to the tender documents.

 Bid Submission:

Suppliers review the ITT and submit their bids, outlining how they will meet the project
requirements, including pricing, timelines, and technical details.
 3. Tender Evaluation:

 Review and Evaluation:

The buyer evaluates the submitted bids based on the predefined criteria outlined in the tender
documents.

 Negotiation (Optional):

In some cases, the buyer may engage in negotiations with shortlisted bidders to clarify details
or negotiate terms before the contract award.

4. Contract Award and Post-Award Management:

 Contract Award: The buyer selects the winning bidder and awards the contract.
 Contract Execution: The winning bidder and the buyer sign a formal contract outlining
the terms and conditions of the project.
 Post-Award Management: Monitor the project's progress, manage the contract, and
ensure compliance with the terms and conditions.
