10. Do not miss the submission deadline for the tender
q Ensure you are very clear what and when the submission deadline is. The
deadline will be clearly stated on the contract notice and tender documents.
q You will not be able to submit your tender response after the deadline, so make
sure you know exactly when that is. It is strongly recommended that you submit
your tender response ‘in good time’. Recommendations suggest anywhere from
72 hours prior to the tender deadline to 24 hours.
