the tender is a legally binding document that both parties should acknowledge and abide by when inviting tenders. Therefore, it should be logical, not inconsistent and ambiguous, concise and short in terms, and accurate in understanding and implementing policies and regulations, which is conducive to the elimination of discriminatory clauses by the tender makers, and is a strong resistance to the traditional concept of "buy whatever you want with money" of Party A (the purchaser or the contractor).
the tender is the most important part in the whole bidding process. A tender is like a script, it is the soul of a movie or a drama. The tender must express all the wishes of the user, and there can be no omissions. The tender is also the basis for bidders to prepare their tender, and bidders must respond substantially to the contents of the tender, otherwise they will be judged as invalid bids (treated as abandoned bids). Tender is also the most important basis for bid evaluation.
