Technical specification review
What each clause means technically, which items carry risk and cost, which wording is ambiguous — a written review before the bid.
You enter the tender,
we cover the technical side.
We are the technical partner of bidders delivering software to public institutions: reading the technical specification, the technical annexes of the bid, development as a subcontractor, acceptance testing, source code and documentation handover.
WHO IT IS FORThe technical side
The technical side
of the bid file.
- BiddersYou are the company with the administrative qualifications and the track record; the build needs a technical team.
- Joint ventures and consortiaYou are bidding as a partnership and need the party that takes on the software line item.
- Public sector contractorsA new software item came up under a framework agreement or an ongoing contract.
- In-house project teamsYou want to discuss what is technically reasonable to ask for before the specification is written.

LET’S BE CLEARWhat we do
What we do
and do not do.
- You are the bidderCM apps Software LLC is a US company. We do not promise to appear as a bidder in tenders in Türkiye; we work as a technical partner or subcontractor. The contracting and invoicing setup is settled in the first conversation.
- No claims about certificatesTrack-record certificates, qualification and guarantees are the administrative side and belong to you. We make no promises there.
- Source code can transfer to the institutionIf the specification requires the source code to be handed over, we work accordingly; which components transfer is written down up front.
- Where data lives is written downData residency, backups and access logs are part of the technical scope — not a conversation for later.

QUESTIONS ON YOUR MIND
Before we start.
Can you bid on our behalf?+
No. You are the bidder; we work as a technical partner or subcontractor. As a US-based company we make no promises about bidder status.
Do we have to write the technical specification?+
When we work on the bidder side we review the specification and report the clauses that create risk or cost. Specifications written by the institution are a separate process and we are not a party to it.
Is the source code handed to the institution?+
If the specification requires it, yes. Which components transfer, the open-source licences and the status of any prebuilt components of ours are written into the contract.
Is data kept in-country?+
If required, yes; hosting is planned accordingly. It is a technical scope item and it affects cost, so it is discussed up front.
Do you take part in the acceptance process?+
Yes. Acceptance tests, test records and training are part of the technical scope; we answer the institution’s technical questions alongside you.
