An auction timeline is more than a closing date. It contains several decision points that every bidder should monitor.
1. Opportunity publication
Download the documents and assign responsibilities immediately.
2. Pre-bid meeting
Prepare technical and commercial questions in advance.
3. Clarification deadline
Submit unresolved questions before the clarification window closes.
4. Submission deadline
Create an earlier internal deadline for approvals and document checks.
5. Evaluation and award
Keep the bid team available for clarifications and preserve the submitted version.
