It might work this year, when we have time as there is only one bid, but normally we wont have time for this… also I think bid teams should be clear what they want and offer. saying "we might be bidding but maybe not" or some such is not helpful. also why should we invest our time in this bid if *they* are not clear if they want to be bidding? > Hope that helps :) yes, thanks! -- cheers, Holger
