Tenders for your industry: find contracts with openSales

School renovation, computer supply, student transport, office cleaning. Each of these orders can be another contract for a company that performs similar work on a daily basis. First, however, you need to find the right announcement and check what the buyer expects.

In openSales, you can browse procedures in eight main industry categories. They include construction works, supplies, and services. After finding the announcement, you go to the details, attachments, and analysis of the documentation.

The industry helps narrow down the search. The documentation allows you to assess whether it is worth preparing an offer.

Construction tenders: construction, infrastructure and design

Are you renovating buildings, installing systems, building roads, or involved in design? In this category, you will find procedures related to construction works, infrastructure, energy efficiency modernization, sanitary and electrical installations. There are also orders for construction materials and equipment, design documentation, supervision, and surveying services.

For construction works the title of the announcement says little about the work that needs to be done. The scope can result from several documents, and later clarifications may change it.

AI analysis helps to organize the scope of works before pricing:

• Bill of quantities: to read items, quantities, and units from the provided document.
• Design or PFU: to gather works resulting from the design or functional and operational program, including those that could not be linked to the bill of quantities.
• STWiORB: to link the works to the requirements of the technical specification for execution and acceptance of construction works.
• Additional works to be included in the organization of works: to check temporary, accompanying, and acceptance works and distinguish between the basic, optional, or excluded scope.
• Discrepancies and changes: to point out issues requiring clarification between the bill of quantities, the design, and the specifications, as well as the impact of later changes on the scope of works.

You gain a starting point to check what needs to be priced and what to ask the buyer. Base the final price on verified quantities, full documentation, and its updates.

Energy tenders: energy, fuels and RES installations

Supply of electricity, heat, gas, fuels, and solid fuels, as well as renewable energy source installations. These are orders for companies operating in the energy and energy carrier supply sectors.

For supplies, the period of execution, the method of placing partial orders, and the supplier's obligations are important. For RES installations, issues of the scope of works, technical documentation, and acceptance are added.

Documentation analysis helps to check these conditions and participation requirements, payment method, and liability for delays. This makes it easier to assess whether you can fulfill the order on the described terms.

Transport tenders: transport, vehicles and logistics

Do you transport people, organize transport, or supply vehicles? In this category, you will find, among others, school transport services, transport and logistics services, purchases of cars and minibuses, and orders for tires, consumables, and license plates.

For transport services, before preparing a price, you need to know the scope, frequency, and hours of operation. For vehicle purchases, the requirements for delivery and documentation are important.

AI analysis helps to organize the implementation conditions and requirements for the supplier. You can more quickly assess whether you have the appropriate vehicles, personnel, and time.

Medical and laboratory tenders

Do you supply medicines, medical supplies, equipment, or laboratory equipment? Here you will also find orders for reagents, medical services, and supplies and services related to scientific research.

In such procedures, it is worth checking the division into parts, required documents, and delivery conditions from the start. It may be important whether the order will be fulfilled in a single instance or in batches, and how much time there will be to deliver the next batch.

Analysis helps to find this information in the documentation. Then you can check the parameters of the required products and assess which parts of the order correspond to your offer.

IT and telecommunications tenders

Computers, audiovisual equipment, software, licenses, IT services, and telecommunications. This category also includes orders related to IT security.

The delivery of equipment, system implementation, and subsequent maintenance involve different obligations. Before pricing, it is worth establishing the scope of the order, deadlines, service requirements, and liability rules.

In service procedures, the analysis includes questions about response time, required service standard, and quality measurement method, including SLAs. This helps to check what level of customer support will be required after signing the contract.

Tenders for professional and administrative services

Legal support, financial and insurance services, translations, promotion, postal shipments, or event organization. Institutions also order expert work and daily operational support. This category also includes, among others, care, hotel, and real estate-related services.

For services, the scope of duties can have a greater impact on the cost than the contract period itself. The frequency of activities, availability hours, and required qualifications are important.

Document analysis helps to check the participation conditions, the expected method of service delivery, and the documents that need to be prepared. It is easier to assess what kind of team and workload the order requires.

Tenders for maintenance, cleaning, and waste management

Do you clean premises, maintain greenery, collect waste, or handle technical maintenance? In the 'Maintenance, Environment, and Waste' category, you will also find orders for disinfection and deratization, chimney sweeping services, water management, and environmental protection.

For facility and area maintenance services, also known as FM, the exact scope of activities matters. Daily cleaning, periodic work, and interventions may require a different team organization.

Analysis helps to check the frequency of work, location and time of execution, required response time, and quality assessment rules. This is information needed to plan personnel, equipment, and costs.

Tenders for supplies, equipment, and other orders

Office furniture, school equipment, food, tools, sports equipment, or household appliances. In this category, you will find many orders related to the daily functioning of institutions. It also includes, among others, office and teaching materials, clothing, protective equipment, and orders from the defense and security sector.

For supplies, the product price is only the beginning of the calculation. Check who is responsible for transport, unloading, and carrying the goods inside, and where and when the goods must be delivered.

Analysis helps to establish these obligations, distinguish between one-time and successive deliveries, and check the deadlines for partial order fulfillment. You can take into account the delivery conditions even before preparing the price.

What will you check in the SWZ and documentation analysis?

Regardless of the industry, before submitting an offer, you need answers to several basic questions: what needs to be done, whether you meet the requirements, what documents to prepare, and what you will be responsible for after signing the contract.

In procedures with attachments, openSales automatically analyzes the provided documentation. You can start with a summary, and then proceed to answers regarding:

• description and scope of the order;
• participation conditions in the procedure;
• documents required from the supplier;
• bid security and performance security;
• deadlines and conditions for execution;
• contractual penalties, liability, and clauses requiring attention.

Additional questions depend on the type of order. For construction works, this includes, among other things, the scope of work and technical documentation; for supplies, the method of delivery of goods; and for services, the frequency, availability, and standard of execution.

After changes to the documentation and addition of new attachments, the analysis is performed again. Its scope depends on the documents available in the given procedure. Check the answers in the content of the attachments; where you see "Show source", you can go to the material on which the answer is based.

Start from the industry, refine the search

Selecting an industry is the first step. Then you can narrow down the results by query, CPV codes, location, and search radius, as well as dates. The settings you want to return to can be saved as a set.

If you perform different types of works, also check neighboring categories. A company installing photovoltaic systems may search in both renewable energy sources (RES) and electrical installations. A workshop equipment supplier can browse laboratory equipment and teaching aids.
