I'm not too familiar with the terms, but this seems equivalent to "

call for bids". If this is the same thing, the call for bids article is much more well-developed, and this article should maybe redirect there. - Derek (talk) 20:12, 27 February 2009 (UTC)[reply

Should https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Invitation_for_bid , https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Call_for_bids , https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Request_for_quotation , and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Request_for_proposal be merged, with a section in which the differences between them are explained? One good article might be better than four less developed ones. Davidlark (talk) 18:51, 25 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed merge with
Call for bids

no difference just a naming (Bid used in American English and tender is for British)

I agree with Derek:

Call for bids, Request for quotation and Request for proposal should remain as separate articles. Articles which concentrate several subjects may grow too long. On the contrary, short articles about a definite subject are easier to update and extend, if new important information appears. They are also more easily translated.

Yes, Invitation for bid (IfB) should be merge with Call for Bids (CfB)

An Invitation for bid (IfB) is the same a a

Call for bids (CfB). I am surprised that the articles have not yet been merged. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 153.100.131.97 (talk) 17:51, 14 June 2018 (UTC)[reply
