A Tender is an open Request for Proposal (RFP) when an organization wants to buy something and is soliciting bids from suppliers. It is more commonly used term within Government sector which requires Procurement ‘tender out’ anything they want to buy to be fair and prevent favoritism.

Bids are the supplier’s proposals against those RFPs. It includes things like pricing, availability and delivery schedule. Bids are usually sealed (secret) and opened during a ‘Tender Opening’ where the Procurement team opens the bids in front of all the suppliers on a certain day and time to ensure transparency.
