eTenderer is an online tender management system that permits tender administrators to automatically issue electronic tenders to a list of tendering companies. The system has been carefully designed to be compliant with the RICS guidelines on etendering.eTenderer integrates online collaborative technologies with procurement automation to enable purchasing teams to compile detailed tender documents and simultaneously invite tender submissions online, by a specified close date. For the first time suppliers' tenders are published as sealed bids, into an online safe deposit box. They can only be opened by specified representatives on the pre-determined tender opening date. The user friendly system ensures even suppliers with no knowledge of online tendering systems can respond easily. The process draws on established procedures which will be familiar to regular users of online information collaboration system the-project.co.uk. However, previous knowledge of the-project.co.uk is not essential, as you will find the tendering process logical and intuitive. eTenderer reduces tender periods to days rather than weeks, providing significant improvements to current non-automated working practices. It is revolutionising procurement and is likely to pave the way toward a change in contractual legislation, saving project time, risk and costs.
"eTenderer supplied by Sarcophagus Ltd. is easy to use, secure, reliable and efficient. In terms of costs, it pays for itself with average savings of 20% on tender returns."
