How to Avoid the Tender Trap

An executive seminar on the law of
competitive bidding and professional liability


Every top player should be here

Tender Trap will highlight essential information for managers involved in the tendering process.

Not just the law of supply and demand!

Tendering has witnessed yet another legal revolution. Recent court decisions have a major impact on your legal obligations and liabilities. Tender Trap will cover the changes for you in an information-packed one-day seminar PLUS provide you with over 200 pages of materials for on-going reference. Here's what we'll do:

  • Review recent Supreme Court decisions (MJB Enterprises) and demonstrate how to avoid expensive litigation in competitive bidding.
  • Highlight critical problem areas in competitive bidding and illustrate how to limit personal risks and liabilities.
  • Explain typical legal roadblocks to competitive bidding and provide cost-effective strategies for increasing your supplier base and reducing prices.

Top Courts Define New Law

This seminar captures the latest law for your tenders. In recent months, Canadian judges have dealt with privilege clauses, errors in bidding, submission of late bids, and political preference. We cover court rulings on unfair tender evaluations, disqualification of bidders and electronic contracting
