- How to Object to Tender Results?

If dissatisfied with tender results or suspecting flaws in evaluation procedures, an official objection can be filed. The objection process requires following specific legal steps and procedures to ensure the rights of all parties and transparency in the review process. Here's how to correctly file an objection to tender results:

1. Review Objection Terms

  • Begin by reading the terms and objection procedures found in the tender documents. These typically include information on how to file an objection, the concerned authorities, and the time frame available for submission.

2. Submit the Objection on Time

  • It is crucial to submit the objection within the specified time frame after results are announced, usually between 5 to 10 days. Submitting outside this period may lead to automatic rejection.

3. Prepare the Objection Request

  • Detail the Reasons for Objection: The objection request should include clear and documented justifications, such as errors in the technical or financial offer evaluation, or failure to comply with certain specified tender conditions.
  • Support the Objection with Documents: Attach documents or evidence that support your objection, such as original documents and evaluations showing potential errors.

4. Submit the Objection to the Concerned Authority

  • Officially submit the objection request to the tender announcing authority, whether through an electronic system (like Etimad) or through approved paper channels. Ensure to follow specified procedures to guarantee acceptance of the request.

5. Follow Up on the Response

  • After submitting the objection, you must follow up on the request status with the concerned authority, where the objection will be reviewed and a decision will be taken.
  • Official Response: Typically, an official response is sent to the objector explaining the review outcome, whether the objection is accepted or rejected.
  • If the objection is not handled as required or the objector is not convinced by the response, they can resort to specialized legal authorities. Such as judicial committees or administrative courts, if strong reasons support it.

Tips for Ensuring an Effective Objection

  • Accuracy and Clarity: Ensure the justifications are clear and based on sound legal and technical grounds.
  • Timing: Adhere to the specified time frame for submitting the objection.
  • Document Follow-up: Keep all supporting documents and evidence for presentation if needed.

Following these steps allows you to file your objection to tender results legally and organized, increasing the chances of appropriate handling of the objection.
