Why do they have to wait. ? Is here a way to find out the content of others submission bids and modify their offer at the last minute ? Otherwise, 24 hours before would be a safe bet . The other commenter is correct, its a common norm in the construction industry here to submit their bid documents on the last day. Otherwise, you're giving your competitor a chance to adjust their final offered price. And how would the other party know the other bidders' amount? Your guess is as good as mine :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thais cannot even be punctual for the benefit of Bt-290 billion! Just like 5-year olds... I am not Thai, but if I have an appointment on the other side of town, I plan ahead. Even if I have to travel 2 hours in Bangkok's notorious traffic, I am hardly ever late. Usually I am 'right on time', or a few minutes early. All possible by thinking ahead and planning your time...

I'm assuming it was a "sealed bid" in which case someone should have been in the proper office to submit the bid exactly at the closing time. That eliminates a competitor from adjusting his bid. Major cock up here, I'd say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We ARE in Thailand! Or had they somehow managed to overlook that fact? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
