Publish a tender
Write a tender, have a second person approve it, then publish it now or at a set time, confirmed with an SMS code.
Publishing needs an approved procuring entity and the admin or procurement role. Tenders are published from the website.
1. Write the tender
- In your workspace, start a new tender, or start it from your procurement plan.
- Fill in the title, category, scope, requirements, evaluation criteria, price schedule, documents, submission deadline and opening date, and any fee.
- Optionally, upload a reference document and let the AI drafting assistant propose the fields. Its suggestions are never saved until you review and keep them.
- Use Preview to see the tender exactly as bidders will.
2. Get it approved
A second person in your organisation must approve the content before it goes live. Request approval; they review and approve it. If anyone edits the tender afterwards, the approval no longer applies and must be given again.
3. Publish
Choose Publish now or schedule a time, then enter the 6-digit code we text to your mobile. Bidders can see it straight away (or at the scheduled time).
After publishing
You can issue an amendment (corrigendum) while the tender allows it; bidders are notified and must acknowledge it. Bids stay sealed until the opening date.
