FAQPage Schema
How do I answer a bidder clarification question in public procurement?▼

Answer only by quoting the specification, instructions, or evaluation criteria and citing the exact section. Anonymise the question and publish the answer to all bidders, since a private clarification is a challengeable irregularity.

What should I do when tender documents do not address a bidder's question?▼

Treat it as a gap in the documents and escalate it to the procurement lead. The lead may need to correct the documents for everybody rather than answering informally.

Can a clarification answer add new requirements to the specification?▼

No. An answer that adds a requirement is an amendment, not a clarification. It must go through the formal amendment process, with a deadline extension if warranted.

What records must be kept for procurement clarifications?▼

Record the question, the date received, the date answered, the answer itself, and the date it was published to all bidders. This audit trail supports the fairness of the competition.

What must never be done when answering bidder questions?▼

Never indicate a preferred approach, comment on another bidder, confirm receipt of a submission outside the process, or answer after the clarification deadline without extending it for all bidders.
