Background and earlier position (tender-based procurement in PSUs)
Public sector undertakings often procure works and services through tender-based contracting. In such processes, a tender notice functions as the public invitation that typically communicates what is being contracted, the category-wise scope, and the procedural rules for applying.
For UPSC exam use, a tender notice represents governance through formal contracting. The PSU sets rules up-front so that participation and selection follow defined documentation and submission requirements rather than informal selection.
