Procurement: Procurement is the process of finding and agreeing to terms, and acquiring goods, services, or works from an external source, often via a tendering or competitive bidding process.

Bidders submit bids in one envelope containing both the price proposal and the technical proposal. The envelopes are opened in public at the date and time advised in the bidding document. The bids are evaluated.
Sourcing: A process to obtain the best overall strategic value, as a subset of the overall Category Management Framework.

Two-Part Bidding: Two part Bid means the technical and financial bids, each put in a separate cover and their evaluation is sequential and in that order.
Two-Stage Bidding: Bidders first submit their technical proposals, in accordance with the specifications, but without prices. The technical proposals are opened at the date and time advised in the bidding document. The technical proposals are evaluated and discussed with the bidders.
Vendor: A vendor is a person or business that supplies goods or services to a company. Another term for the vendor is the supplier. In many situations, a company presents the vendor with a purchase order stating the goods or services needed, the price, delivery date, and other terms.
