Tender and pricing Specialist
What is a tender?
A tender is a process through which an organization requests proposals from interested transportation or logistics service providers to deliver specific services. This process is usually governed by a document called a "tender notice" or "tender document," which outlines the organization's needs, the requirements for the requested services, the selection criteria for providers, and the submission procedures for bids.
