Invitations to Tender
The companies to which ITT will be issued should be selected carefully. Pre-selection may be by a formal pre-qualification exercise or by informal means. In either case the objective is the same, to establish companies that have:
- Relevant experience.
- An appropriate standing as regards finance, insurance, quality assurance and health and safety.
- The capacity to carry out the work required.
It is important to specify a date by which completed Invitations to Tender must be returned. The timescales set should not be too short, nor should deadlines be set for contract signature: failure by either party to give full consideration to all the issues involved may result in a contract that is unsatisfactory.
