Companies that work for
the government pass through previous scoring. They have to meet some strict
requirements the government ask. Some of these requirements are: the document
scoring for the company, and a brief physic model of the product the government
wants. That’s the brief procedure before choosing the winning company that the
government will grant the contract in order to work for it.
Benefits about working for the government:
ü When signing a contract with the
government, this contract assures its production in the short or long term.
ü It also assure the payment from the
bills.
ü It gives experience to the company
in the way of how the product should be correctly made.
ü If the company have been accepted,
when other tenders come, there’s a high probability that this company will be
chosen again.
ü It helps to budget projects with the
payment of bills that are already assured.
ü It helps to the scoring and quality
of the products for a possible export.
A public tender or a competitive
bidding is the process of awarding a public call which stakeholders participate
freely, presenting analysis and proposals for allocation of the purchase of
goods, leases and services to one or more persons. The procedure to win a
public tender is a little difficult for those companies that are just starting
because competition exists. Nevertheless, they can win if requirements are correctly
presented.
Procedure to win a government tender:
1.
The
government throws a tender in general.
2.
It
schedules a date for a presentation of all companies that are competing
depending on the entity or ministry.
3.
The
companies, interested in that type of tender, get ready for it.
4.
The
day of presentation, the companies give their documents indicating the price
they’re offering (those prices vary depending on the company), and the physical
model of the product for the tender.
5.
Then,
it evaluates all the documents and gives a score to each company.
6.
The
winning company, five days passed after the evaluation, may sign the contract
only if none of the companies oppose to the results, but this happens very
rarely.
7.
The
government choses the best company that gathers all the requirements and score
in price and model.
Once a company has won
the tender, it finally enjoys all the benefits when working for the government.
The contract lasts usually a year or more, which is good for the company since
it will receive a high amount of money from the government. This contract
assures the company that it will be paid no matter what.
