Single-stage tendering
Single-stage tendering is the more traditional route, used when all the information necessary to
calculate a realistic price is available when tendering commences:

An invitation to tender is issued to prospective suppliers (perhaps following

completion of a pre-qualification questionnaire and / or a pre-tender interview).
The invitation to tender will include information describing the goods or services
required in sufficient detail to enable prospective suppliers to prepare an
accurate tender.
Tenders are prepared and returned by prospective suppliers (this may involve
questions and answers and a mid-tender interview to clarify the clients requirements).
Submitted tenders are then assessed and compared (this may involve further
interviews).
The preferred tenderer is selected and negotiations opened.
Subject to the outcome of those negotiations the preferred tenderer may then be
appointed

Every business divides its tasks into two categories: (i) those which it carries out
itself, by means of its own employees; (ii) those which it gets others to carry out
for it under contract. For example, some manufacturers contract with a delivery
company to deliver their wares, rather than deliver them themselves; some
companies hire cleaning contractors to clean their offices rather than employ
cleaners themselves; companies generally purchase furniture rather than
produce it in-house; and so on.
