520			_aProvides useful best practice information on e-tendering for anyone involved in procurement, allowing clients and tenderers to their costs, remove unnecessary administration and streamline the overall tendering process. Use standard practice to show the benefits of a consistent approach and avoid ambiguities and technical incompatibility.

Appendices include a glossary of terms, sample materials, checklists and sources of further information on implementing e-tendering.
