- Buyer: Gemeinde Kirchberg

- Public tender, worked by a fictional sample company. Nothing was submitted. Sample company: Satzwerk Thurtal AG (fictional).

## From tender file to complete submission, with no proof missing

### What is not in the envelope is not asked for later

Ziva lists every form and proof with content, signature and the consequence if missing, each with its source. You tick off instead of searching.

Screenshot: Submission checklist in Ziva: every form and proof with type, content and consequence if missing, exclusion in red and lost points in orange.

### Four page counts, three years, one bid total

Ziva carries issues and page counts into the structure of the price form, with formulas for the yearly and bid totals. You fill in the yellow price fields.

Screenshot: The “Preisstruktur” sheet in Ziva: issues per page count over three years, empty fields for the price per issue and the bid total as a formula.

### Paper, envelope, postmark: the form decides too

The digital copy does not meet the deadline. Ziva sums up how to submit and traces every statement to the submission terms.
