Etymology
The term 'tendering' originates from the word 'tender', which is derived from the Latin 'tendere', meaning 'to stretch or extend'. In the context of business and finance, the use of 'tender' began to evolve in the 18th century, especially within government and construction sectors where formal bids were required for projects. The practice of tendering became widely established as a means to ensure fair competition and transparency in awarding contracts. Over time, the concept has expanded beyond government contracts to include private sector projects, making tendering a crucial component in modern procurement processes.
