Tenders / Tendering Procedures
Whatever your role; surveyor, developer, funder, contractor, consultant, you are likely to have some knowledge of tendering.

What tendering process should be used?

Timms Eida advise and guide clients through the tendering process and ensure there is clarity as to what basis the parties are working on, and to avoid ambiguity. Any ambiguity inevitably leads to disputes which in turn lead to increased costs.
