Update Tender Documents

Objective

To update documents, specifications and drawings that are included in your tender package.

Things to Consider

  • Required User Permissions:  
    • 'Admin' level permissions to the project's Tendering tool.
      AND
    • 'Read Only' level permissions or higher to the project's Documents, Drawings or Specifications tools.
      Note: You will only see the tools and items that you have the necessary permissions to. 
  • Additional Information:
    • Tender packages show a static snapshot of the attached documents, drawings and specifications from the date and time they were attached.

Follow the steps below to add or remove tender files from the Drawings, Documents and Specifications tool.

Update Files Changed Outside of the Tendering Tool

If updates have been made to the tender documents outside of the tender package (for example, if files were uploaded to your tender folder in the Documents tool), you will see a banner that informs you that changes were made to the files.
