Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Has anyone done a pre-tender 2Aug 13, 2008 5:01 pm penny73 Our land doesnt title til May 09 so PD want to get us in for a pre-tender appointment before our tender appointment. Is this usual? some builder call it preliminary contract, others seem to call it pre-tender. think it is same beast and seems to be quite common. this is where you will p[ick up all the errors from what you have asked for in options and variations. Go through it with a fine tooth comb to make sure everything it there and if they have given you pricing for options or variations makse sue those prices are refelcted in this pre-tender document as builder are nortorious for making mistakes simply through being overwealmed with work. all the best cheers Peter Re: Has anyone done a pre-tender 3Aug 13, 2008 5:06 pm Peter I think with PD the tender is the equivalent of Prelim.
