ABSTRACT
Electronic Tender is carrying out the traditional tender process in an electronic form, using the
internet. The client can base their decision on the result of the tenders to select the most suitable
seller. In this paper, we present a design and implementation of an e-tender system by using Web
services for the automation of such tender processes.
A Tender Process is a method by which suppliers are selected for the provision of products and
services to an organization. The process involves creating a suite of Tender Documents to
manage the supplier selection process. The Tender Documents help the organization to select the
best possible supplier available, and include documents such as the "Statement of Work",
"Request for Information" and "Request for Proposal".

INTRODUCTION
E-tender project is an online web portal asp.net project which is an automated method for manual
tender process where tender process can be done through online process. In present trend manual
methods are used for tender process users need to submit documents and participate on location
for attending tender process. But this is time taking process and users there will be problem for
users who are away from location.
Users need to register with application and get unique user name and password for accessing
these features. This system is designed using ASP.NET technology which can build dynamic
web pages easily. Interaction with database, personalizing components are also available in this
technology
In this project, the companies who wish to participate in submitting a tender need to register
online through the website. Once the registration of the company is completed, the company
adds the different items as per the requirement. When the client views the site, he can check out
the various tenders and can apply for the tenders by filling up the required details.
OBJECTIVE
By using a formal tender process, you can show that the preferred supplier was selected fairly.
This Tender Process includes all of the steps needed to select and contract external suppliers,
quickly and efficiently.
1. Enable all those involved to access documentation simultaneously and be kept up-to-date
via instant notifications, ensuring the process is fair
2. Reduce phone calls seeking documentation and project updates, and share answers to
frequently asked questions
3. Provide clarity, transparency and consistency through the effective communication of key
procurement milestones and updates
4. Save time and waste in the production, revision, publication and distribution of technical
specifications and documentation
5. Make it easier to log, share, discuss and address key issues and risks.

METHODOLOGY
This project performs the product tender through online web application.
The entire system is divided into 3 major modules
1. Admin
2. Buyer
3. Supplier
1. Admin: The admin has to login with his user id and password and matins
Products details and category details and also matins Buyer details and Buyer
reports and Buyer registrations and Reports. He can modify the tenders, and
answer queries posted by suppliers.
2. Buyer: The buyer has to register if they are new to the website. Then they can
login with their user id and password and view their own profile, post tenders,
view all suppliers, send mails to the supplier or the admin. They also can query
for the related tenders.
3. Supplier: The Supplier has to register if they are new to the website. Then they
can login with their user id and password and view their own profile, post tenders,
view all buyers, send mails to the supplier or the admin. They also can query for
the related tenders.
SYSTEM REQUIREMENT SPECIFICATION
Hardware Requirements

RAM 2 GB and Above
Software Requirements

WINDOWS OS (XP / 2000 / 200 Server / 2003 Server)

Visual Studio .Net Framework (Minimal for Deployment)
version 4.0 Internet
Information Server (IIS)

Ajax Toolkit

SQL Server 2008
Why .NET?
1. Interoperability between languages and execution environments
2. Uniformity in schema or formats for Data Exchange using XML
3. Extend or use existing code that is valid
4. Programming complexity of environment is reduced
The .NET Framework is…
1. A component model for the internet
2. The new approach to building large scale distributed systems for the Internet
3. Provides the capability to integrate multiple devices
4. Built around the tools and protocols (XML, WSDL, SOAP, HTTP) that are becoming standard
on the Internet
The .NET in ASP.NET stands for the .NET Framework, a set of objects and blueprints from
Microsoft for building applications. All applications developed under the .NET Framework;
including ASP.NET applications, have certain key features that ensure compatibility, security,
and stability.
The .NET Framework Design Goals
1. Component Development for the Internet
2. "Cross-Language Development”
3. Inheritance, Debugging, Exception handling
4. Reliability and Security
5. Simple Development and Deployment
6. Device-agnostic
ASP.NET
ASP.NET is a technology that allows us to build and control dynamic Web pages easily. It also
provides many enhancements to take advantage of new technology as we can interact with
databases, personalize Web pages for visitors, display page on mobile devices (such as cell
phones), and even build an entire e-commerce site from scratch.
Previously internet works on request/response model that is an integral part of client/server
model. Although this is a marvelous way of communicate and distribute information, it's rather
simple and static. When the process is over, once client receives the requesting page from the
server the server has no idea what the client is doing unless it makes another request.
There is another model for communicating between server and clients, known as event-driven
model.ASP.NET work on this model, it detects action and responds to them i.e. the server waits
around for something to happen on the client. Once it does, the server takes action and performs
some piece of functionality. Of course, a Web, server cannot know what you are thinking, but it
can respond to your actions. If you type some text on Web page, the server responds to it. If you
click an image, the server responds.
Implementation Environment
Back-End:
SQL SERVER
SQL Server is an SQL-compliant RDBMS. SQL-compliant means it use the ANSI (American
National Standard Institute) version of Structured Query Language or ‘SQL’. Structured Query
Language is a command that allow us to modify or retrieve information from the database.
Client server means that SQL Server is designed to store data in the central location (the server)
and deliver it on demand to numerous other locations (the client). SQL Server is also a
Relational Database Management System (RDBMS).
FEATURES OF SQL SERVER 2008
1 Information representation
2 Unique definition of rows
3 Systematic treatment of Null values
4 Guaranteed access
5 High level Update, Insert, and Delete
6 Retrieving information from the database.
7 Accepting query language statements.
8 Enforcing security specifications.
9 Enforcing data integrity specifications
10 Enforcing transaction consistency
11 Managing data sharing
12 Optimizing queries
13 Managing System catalogs
CONCLUSION
It has been a great pleasure for us to work on this exciting and challenging project.
This project proved good for us as it provided practical knowledge of not only
programming in ASP.NET and C# web based application but also about all handling
procedure related with “E-Tender”. It also provides knowledge about the latest
technology used in developing web enabled application and client server technology
that will be great demand in future. This will provide better opportunities and
guidance in future in developing projects independently.
