Guidelines to fulfill in the Tender
System
The capacity, past credentials and financial
status of the tendered is thoroughly
investigated before awarding the contract.
These aspects should be commented in detail
along with the tender documents.
The rates should be quoted in the numbers
and words without any corrections. To take
advantage of any possible increase in
statutory taxes & duties, the tax component
such as excise duty, Sales Tax, Works
Contract Tax, etc. should be clearly indicated.

25
Tenderers should not quote many special conditions
as some of them may have financial implications, did
this can be added to your quoted cost. Also it
creates confusion and creates room for manipulative
forces.
The rates quoted for individual items should be
realistic and should not be abnormal and unworkable.
