Optimizing Tendering Process through the Implementation of Improved Version of E-Tendering in a Natural Gas Treatment Company

Bassam Al-Hamad | Abdulrahman Darwish

Abstract: This research is aimed to investigate the effect of adopting E-tendering instead of the traditional tendering. It is applied to a real case study on a natural treatment gas company. The e-tendering process was optimized to maximize the benefits and decrease all possible outputs including cost and time. Better idea is obtained on the parameters through literature review on tendering process, and through the instruments used in this study. The instruments included in-depth interviews with experienced individuals and questionnaire survey covering most of the targeted population. The outcomes are used to design a soft file that simulates the systemized tender bid evaluation stage to check the effectiveness of the improved version of e-tendering.
