The Pre-award module provides an end-to-end management solution for the tendering process for large capital projects. AVEVA Contract Risk Management is highly configurable, providing users with the tools to create all types of tenders such as competitive tenders, framework agreements, e-tendering, etc..
Within AVEVA Contract Risk Management, tender templates provide the basis of all tenders created. Tender templates can be created by users with the Tender Configuration - Write Access permission. When creating templates, various types of template steps can be added. Each type of step has a different function with features specifically designed for the various stages of the tendering process. For a list of each type of step and its features, see the Tender process step types below.
When the tender is in progress, company users (with the appropriate permissions) can maintain the tender process. Step lengths can be edited and new steps added as desired. Company users can communicate with contractors both through the various schedule items and through the tender message facility. When a contractor has been awarded the contract, AVEVA Contract Risk Management can generate the contract retaining all relevant information ready for use in the Post-award module.
