  • E-Tendering Process
  • Successful implementation of e-Tendering processing for civil works at IGCAR. E-tendering is carrying out all the tendering activities from the advertising of the requirement through website upto placing of the contract in an electronic form, using the internet. The main objective for e-tendering is to bring security, authenticity and accountability in a transparent way for the tendering process. The main advantages of the e-tendering process include: faster turnaround time, greater transparency, economic and eco-friendly, access to information all through the day, ease and speed with which changes or clarifications to the tender documents can be notified, enabling the bidder to modify or withdraw their bids any time prior to the closure of the tender, automatic rejection of incomplete bids, thereby giving bidders the opportunity to correct them, arguably expands the market by allowing smaller companies greater access, regardless of location, to respond in a cost-effective way without the traditional concern of how to get the bid in on time and arguably expands the market to a greater number of bidders and to bidders to a greater number of projects.
