Legal’s Role in the
Tendering Process
Marketing Specific Issues
• DETAILS REQUIREMENT
Contracts must be detailed, all specs must be included in the tendering
documents and contracts
Detail Requirements are essential as in accordance with Article (35) D, (36)
and (37) of the Tender Law Implementing Regulations
Do not assume just because Marketing has dealt with a company previously,
that they do not require the same detailed level of information that is required
in all tendering documents and contracts
• COMPETITIVENESS
Ensure process is competitive and transparent
Do not negotiate with a bidder prior to issuing an RFP, which would insinuate
that the tendering process is uncompetitive and thus compromised
Legal’s Role in the
Tendering Process
Event Specific Issues
• SPONSORSHIP CONTRACTS
EDB generic template to be used for efficient and quick turnaround
Legal team can review sponsorship contract from the other side if
required on exceptional circumstances such as Euromoney, however this
will require additional time for a full review to be carried out
• PROPOSALS REQUIRED
Always provide the proposal/package
• PERFORMANCE BOND
Sponsorship Contracts are subject to the Tender Laws, as such a
performance bond is required
A waiver may be obtained by Procurement from the Tender Board or Internal
Procurement Committee.
A request must be put in writing to the finance/procurement team
• ADVANCE PAYMENTS IN SPONSORSHIP CONTRACTS
This is subject to the EDB’s Finance Manual as noted above and is a finance
related issue
A waiver ma be requested
• ACCURACY
Contracts need to be filled out accurately by SOC
