3. What are the important aspects to consider when preparing a tender or quotation?
Ans. Some important aspects to consider when preparing a tender or quotation include understanding the project requirements thoroughly, accurately estimating costs, considering any specific terms and conditions provided by the client, ensuring compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, and presenting the proposal in a clear and professional manner.
4. How can a supplier ensure competitiveness in their tender or quotation?
Ans. Suppliers can ensure competitiveness in their tender or quotation by conducting market research to understand prevailing prices and competitors' offerings. They can also explore opportunities to optimize costs, improve efficiencies, and provide value-added services. Additionally, maintaining good relationships with suppliers and customers can help in obtaining favorable pricing and references.
5. What are the potential risks and challenges in the tender or quotation process?
