ANSWER: The customer must indicate in the tender documentation the possibility of rebidding. He independently determines the conditions of this procedure and also decides how many times it can be carried out and how many bidders can participate in it. Some customers consider rebidding a necessary step and carry it out anyway, others refuse it if it is possible to determine the winner at the first attempt.

The bidders learn about the rebidding due notification in their account on the website of the electronic trading platform. In any case, if the tender documentation indicates the possibility of rebidding, the bidder should periodically monitor the status of consideration of applications and check messages. The bidder is not obliged to change the conditions of his offer, even if he has been invited to participate in the rebidding.

The rebidding can take place in live or remote mode:

A life rebidding reminds an auction. The procedure is carried out online at the electronic platform at a predetermined time. The bidders can only change the price offer: each of them sees the offers of competitors and lowers his own price. The bidder who makes the most favorable offer to the customer wins.
The remote rebidding is rather a repetition of the first stage of bidding. All bidders invited to participate in the rebidding send to the customer new offers, and the bidders cannot learn what changes the competitors have made to their applications. The customer simultaneously opens the envelopes with the applications on the appointed day and summarizes the results. 


ANSWER: Yes, it is possible, but it will be necessary to get approval of the administration of the platform on the changes.
