A realistic, disciplined 45-day plan for moving from a standing start to a genuine first contract engagement.

How To Approach This

Days 1–10: Gather and cross-check all entity, financial, and DSC documentation, and submit your IREPS registration/enlistment application.
Days 11–20: While registration processes, research relevant zones and categories, and study several past or current tenders/auctions in your target category to understand realistic requirements and pricing.
Days 21–35: Begin actively monitoring and bidding on well-matched opportunities, applying full technical compliance discipline and realistic, cost-based pricing to each submission.
Days 36–45: Continue active bidding while building your corrigendum-monitoring and status-tracking habits into a genuine daily routine, treating early bids partly as learning experience.

Is 45 days realistic for every vendor?

It's a reasonable target for well-prepared vendors with clean documentation; complications like enlistment class mismatches can extend it.

What's the biggest risk to staying on this timeline?

Document or financial-eligibility mismatches discovered mid-process are the most common cause of delay beyond the planned schedule.
