(process of) privatization bidding


Explanation:
Correct me if I don't read correctly between the lines. The object of the bidding is a state-owned enterprise or concern that is to be auctioned off basically to make money for the state, but officially and officiously to "promote free competition" (the globalization buzz word). The documents thus do not involve a tendering of services, but rather a TAKEOVER OFFER or buyout on the part of the bidder.

Call for privatization


Explanation:
Hi M Benitez:

I found the above term in my legal dictionary.

"Tender" is more a formal proposal.

I hope this helps.
Saludos,
Andrea
