A Request for Tender is a formal document that invites potential suppliers to submit a detailed bid or proposal against the requirements outlined in the document. The bid should meet the specified requirements and be submitted at the lowest possible price. Therefore, option D is the correct consequence of a Request for Tender. Option A is incorrect because the information submitted should be specific to the tender requirements, not general. Option B is incorrect because suppliers are required to submit a detailed bid, not a general tender. Option C is incorrect because the submission of general information does not guarantee the awarding of a supply contract.
