bidding and tendering


Explanation:

Bidding and tendering

"Konkurs" (="bidding") is an open procedure, where the competing parties are in the same room, at the same web site, etc., and can make any changes to their original offer, depending on how the situation develops. "Bidding" (konkurs) is more close to what we call "auktsion", than "tendering" (=Rus. "tender"). In "tendering", the proposals of the participants are collected, and a specially designated commission (in your case, the governmental privatization commission) takes decision in the absence of the participants.

See the example below, which helps to understand this difference:

As distinct from bidding, at which all offers are examined at an
open sitting and where the temporary adjudication of deliveries of award of a contract to a tenderer
offering the lowest price takes place, the tenders are examined in camera, i.e., without the presence
of tenderers."
http://www.google.com/search?q=cache:www.untpdc.org/untpdc/l...

Very often, "bidding" and "tendering" are used in the English language together, in order to include both methods of selecting the winner.

I would translate the title of your report as follows:

"Analysis of Privatization by Bidding and Tendering Procedures in the Year 2000."

Hope that this helps you.

Best regards,

Artyan

competition and bidding


Explanation:
From my 9-year experience with major US law firms and producers I know that most preferable translation is "competition", as the word describing the general principle, and "bidding" as a specific procedure most likely to be applied.
