Impartial evaluation of the received tenders is very important, in order to provide a fair process for all contractors to win the tender and provide a truly competitive outcome. This means that all received tenders are treated in exactly the same way with regards to submission return dates, error checking and handling of information before the tender return.

This should be the case of handlig tenders from contractors that you’ve recommended and worked with previously, as well as new contractors that you don’t have too much experience working with.
