Preparing the published article.
Five Common Errors in Project Announcements
Small drafting errors cause large delays.
Frequent mistakes
| Error | Consequence |
|---|---|
| Figure and words disagree | The notice is challenged and must be reissued |
| Wrong legal entity name | The award notice and contract name differ |
| Too short a period | The notice has to be published again |
| Named personnel omitted | A required detail is missing and invites complaint |
| Attachments missing or unreadable | Reviewers cannot verify the record |
How to avoid them
- Use a checklist and have a second person review before publication.
- Scrutinise the figures, the dates and the exact legal names.
- Publish attachments in a widely readable format.
The care taken over a notice often determines how smoothly the contract can proceed.
