Dredgers are capital infrastructural tools that in many cases are procured by government agencies, International organizations and large private companies that perform infrastructural projects for governments. Therefore the use of tender processes to aquire these dredgers are common.
The tender process typically involves issuing a request for proposals (RFP) that outlines the technical specifications and requirements for the cutter suction dredger, as well as the evaluation criteria that will be used to assess the proposals. The RFP may also include information on the budget available, the expected delivery timeline, and any other terms and conditions that bidders must adhere to.
