The process of soliciting bids from suppliers is intricate, especially in government institutions bound by procurement legislative requirements. Within the Government Institution, the Supply Chain Management (SCM) unit shoulders much of the complexity management for the internal end-user.
 
While the customer's focus is concentrated in a few critical areas vital for bid success, this guide offers a comprehensive outline of the bid process and highlights key issues. It is essential to note that this document does not substitute close collaboration with the SCM Unit, whose professional expertise significantly contributes to successful outcomes.
 
To enhance success, involve the SCM Unit and other subject matter experts in the process as early as possible. Relevant good practice guides for the RFx user guide include Roles and responsibilities and High-level RFx process overview.
