Government eProcurement platforms are very important because they make the bidding process digital and easy to see, use, and understand. It's important to know the state of the tender whether you're a business that wants to bid or a contractor who is waiting for the awards. This guide will show you how to use different eProcurement sites to check on the status of a tender.

Why is it important to see where a tender stands?

As the tender process goes on, this function keeps you up to date on reviews, bids, and results.

• Being on Time: This helps you finish the tasks or questions you need to on time.
• Competitive Edge: Knowing where your bids stand lets you plan well for future offers.
• Clear: Government eProcurement tools make sure that the competition is fair, and you can check on the tender's status to stay up to date on the selection process.

How to Use eProcurement Portals to find out what’s going on with a Tender

1. Find the right e-procurement site.

• All parts of the government have their own eProcurement page where they post bids. These are some well-known ones:
• It is possible to reach the Central Public Procurement Portal (CPPP).
• Hey, and welcome to the GeM Portal!
• E-Procurement Sites for Every State
• Portals for both public and private bidders

2. Find the part that says "Tender Status" or "Bid Status."

You can check the state of both open and closed tenders on most portals. These are things to look for:

• "Search Tenders"
• "Bid Submission Status"
• "Tender Results"
• "Awarded Tenders"

3. Fill out information about the tender

• You might need to type in the following to find a certain offer:
• You can find the tender ID or reference number in the bid letter.
• When it applies, the name of the department
• Who is bidding or their GSTIN (so we can keep track of who is bidding)
• Date Range: This lets you narrow down the results by the date the bid began or closed.

4. Check to see where the tender stands.

It will show you the state of the tender once you enter the required information. Here are some common status types:

• Open for Bidding: Bids are being taken on the tender right now.
• The bidding is now over, and the review process has begun.
• Technical Evaluation: Bids that have been sent in are being looked over to make sure they follow the rules.
• Reviewing the money: price deals are being thought about.
• Given: The deal went to the person who bid the highest.
• The tender was taken back by the organization that gave it out.

5. Get the bid results or review reports, if they're out there.

You can get detailed evaluation reports from some portals that tell you why bids were accepted or refused. Download the following if you can:

• Reports on the start of bids
• Charts to Help You Compare
• Alerts about awards
• Using well-known e-procurement sites to check on the status of bids

How to Know What's Going on with Your Tender

• Set up alerts for email and text message. A lot of portals let bidders set up alerts that let them know when the situation changes.
• Check Often: You should check the site often because the review process can take a while.
• Talk to Helpdesk: If you can't keep track of the process, get in touch with that portal's customer service team.
