Spanish term

económicas previas

Spanish to English Bus/Financial Economics
Hello,

can "económicas previas" be translated as "preliminary economics" or is it just "previous economics"??

The entire (very short) sentence :
Petitición de ofertas técnicas y/o **económicas previas**

Thanks in advance ;->

I have found a complete sentence and explanantion of the term, but still not sure how to actually say it...maybe this will help sort it out...

**Petición de ofertas económicas previas, cuando se dé alguna de las siguientes circunstancias:

*No se disponga de información para conocer referencias de precio para el bien o servicio en ese momento concreto.

*El análisis de las ofertas técnicas sea extraordinariamente costoso y pueda realizarse un primer filtro eliminando proveedores con las peores ofertas económicas

*Se estime, por referencias de mercado, que la posible disparidad de ofertas económicas pueda hacer deasonsejable una subasta.

The Spanish makes no sense, IMHO, and I can only suggest, in line with my earrlier idea "preliminary/initial (economic/financial) budgets/estimates/forecasts. Can't you contact the client?
Heather Dawson (asker) Oct 27, 2006:
misread?? I was thinking...did I perhaps misread this?? I think this makes more sense....

"Request for previous technical and/or economical bids"

I am on the right track or completely off on this one??

Thanks again;->

Note from asker:
I thought that "petición de oferta" means "requesting a bid"?? Is bid then not necessary in all of these occurrences?? Thanks;->

Invitation for preliminary tenders/financial estimates

I think we're getting there. Clumsy, but I believe that's what they want to say.

previous technical and/or economical bids

I think the adjective "previas" applies to "ofertas" and they may be either "técnicas " or "económicas"

I'm with Heather and the points. if so, should go to her

Good luck
