Amend a live tender

Change a published tender with a recorded reason. Suppliers are told and must acknowledge.

Updated 7 October 2026

Make an amendment

  1. Open the live tender and edit it, or press Raise an amendment from this on a clarification.
  2. Change what needs changing.
  3. Enter a Reason for amendment. Suppliers will see this.
  4. Save. The tender moves to the next version.

If your organisation uses approvals, the amendment waits for an Approver to Approve and issue or Reject it.

What suppliers see

Every invited supplier is told the tender has changed. They must acknowledge the new version before they can submit, and suppliers who already bid are asked to confirm their bid still stands or update it.

Reopen a closed tender

Press Reopen and pick a new closing date. Every invited supplier is emailed, bids already in still stand, and suppliers can update theirs before the new deadline. This isn't possible once scoring has started.
