Answer»

Right choice is (a) Single-stage

Best explanation: Single-stage TENDERING is the more traditional route, used when all the information necessary to calculate a realistic price is available when tendering commences:

• An invitation to tender is issued to prospective suppliers (perhaps following completion of a pre-qualification questionnaire and/or a pre-tender interview). The invitation to tender will include information describing the goods or services required in sufficient detail to enable prospective suppliers to prepare an accurate tender.

• Tenders are PREPARED and returned by prospective suppliers (this may involve questions and answers and a mid-tender interview to clarify the client’s REQUIREMENTS).

• Submitted tenders are then assessed and compared (this may involve further interviews).

• The preferred tenderer is SELECTED and negotiations opened.

• Subject to the OUTCOME of those negotiations the preferred tenderer may then be appointed.
