Bid opening is the formal process of receiving, registering, and initiating evaluation of all bids submitted by the deadline in a public procurement procedure. Traditionally, this may occur in a public meeting, where key details (such as bidder names and prices) are recorded and sometimes announced.
In modern practice, the process may be conducted administratively or via e‑procurement systems, but the essential objective remains: to ensure full transparency, prevent the acceptance of late submissions, and confirm that all bids are accounted for in a fair and orderly manner. By formalizing the moment when bids are opened, contracting authorities reinforce the integrity of the process, enabling bidders to trust that no clandestine adjustments or preferential treatments occur.
This step is closely linked to EU principles of transparency, equal treatment, and non-discrimination, which underpin fair competition and public accountability.
