01 / The questions

Five questions that define a sale to the State.

They organize a supplier’s work, from finding the tender to delivering the contract, although many opportunities are discarded before bidding. The walkthrough shows how Masnet answers them, with real screens.

  • «Which of these tenders deserve our attention?»

    Teams review processes without knowing which ones match what the company offers.

    In MasnetPredictivas prioritizes tenders based on your catalog and your company’s history of participation in Mercado Público. Your team decides which ones to evaluate.

  • «What do the terms require, and where is it written?»

    Without a reference to the document, it is hard for the team to check the analysis and justify its decisions.

    In MasnetKIM, Masnet’s AI, answers with quotes from the terms that support each fact, so your team can check them.

    See it in the walkthrough
  • «Are we taking part, and who owns it?»

    Without a decision or an owner, the tender consumes work and closes without a bid.

    In MasnetThe decision to take part, pass or defer is recorded with its reasoning and history, along with the next action, its owners and a due date.

    See it in the walkthrough
  • «Will we reach the deadline with a complete bid?»

    Building it directly on Mercado Público means line by line and annex by annex, against the clock.

    In MasnetYou prepare it with products from your catalog, the price your commercial rules resolve, with its origin on each line, and documents from the company Drive. You review it and submit it with the Masnet extension, from your Mercado Público session.

    See it in the walkthrough
  • «We won the award. What do we have to deliver now?»

    After the award, tracking contracts, purchase orders, guarantees and deadlines ends up spread across files and people.

    In MasnetThe contract stays linked to the tender, with its purchase orders, milestones, obligations and guarantees.

02Terms

The terms, with each requirement on its page.

The terms are read in the viewer and KIM, Masnet’s AI, summarizes them. In Mercado Público attachments, requirements are ordered by consequence: what disqualifies the bid, what prevents participation, the hard deadlines. Each one carries its citation and opens the PDF on the page where it appears.

  • PDF, Word, Excel and image viewer inside the tender
  • Summary of the terms with its source
  • Evaluation criteria with their weighting

The list of requirements is partial: it does not yet cover every family of requirements. Reviewing the terms is still your team’s work.

03 / KIM

One question about the terms. Six sources to check it.

KIM is Masnet’s artificial intelligence for analyzing tenders and consulting their documents. In this recorded consultation on tender 3789-38-LP26, it explained the award deadline, found that the tender record and the terms publish different dates, and pointed to where each fact comes from.

How KIM answers

  1. The sources of the process

    Terms, annexes, Q&A forum and the official record, or only the document you choose. When the question requires it, also the Public Procurement Law and its regulations, and the reviewed guidelines of CENABAST (the national health supply agency) and ISP (the Public Health Institute).

  2. Only valid evidence

    KIM looks for the passages that answer and accepts only official or reviewed sources that are in force: an expired or unreviewed guideline is left out.

  3. An answer backed by evidence

    Every answer comes with the quotes that support it: the passage, its document and, when there is one, its page.

  4. Your check

    You open each piece of evidence. Reading the terms and making the decision remain your team’s job.

KIM / Recorded consultation

The award date does not match between the tender record and the terms.

When is the award made and what is the maximum period according to the terms? Say from when it is counted and what effects a delay would have on my bid and the guarantees.

The award is scheduled for November 3, 2026. The terms set a period of 20 calendar days from the electronic opening of bids, extendable by up to 20 additional calendar days if the agency reports the reasons and a new date. The schedule date does not literally match the date written in the terms: there it appears as “02.11.2023”.

The schedule section of the administrative terms counts the period from the electronic opening and allows the additional extension. The clause on changes to the terms provides that, if the award is not made within the period, the reasons and the new date are reported in the system. Decree 661/2024, article 58, also requires reporting those reasons and the new deadline when the period in the terms is not met.

The delay does not appear as an automatic cause for losing your bid or for the performance bond to be called: the terms state that the bid remains valid for at least 60 calendar days from notice of the award, and that the 20 business days to deliver the guarantee also run from that notice. The documents do not specify an automatic effect of the delay that extends those periods beyond what is expressly stated.

The tender record publishes the award for November 3, 2026, while the schedule in the terms literally records “02.11.2023”. The counting and extension rule in the terms is stated.
