tarjoushintaan

Tarjoushintaan is a Finnish term that refers to the price offered by a supplier in response to a request for bids or a tender. The tarjouksen hinta is the amount proposed to supply goods or services under the terms of the bid and may include costs such as delivery, installation, and after‑sales support. In a competitive procurement, bidders submit tarjouksia (offers) that specify price and the contractual terms. The evaluation of bids typically combines price with other criteria such as quality, technical capability, delivery schedule, warranties, and references. The contract is awarded according to a predefined evaluation method; a low price is advantageous but not the sole determinant.

Tarjoushintaan may be stated as net price (excluding VAT) or gross price, depending on the tender documents. VAT, discounts, currency adjustments, and potential price revisions may be specified separately. The process is common in both private procurement and public sector tenders and is governed by procurement legislation in Finland. In practice, the process can include optional or alternative bids, negotiations, and clarifications before signing the contract. The tarjouksen hinta becomes binding when the contract is formed, but price adjustments may be permitted under agreed terms if the scope of work changes or if inflation or other factors affect the contract during its term.

Note on language: tarjoushinta is the base noun; tarjoushintaan is the illative case form meaning “to the bid price” in sentences describing changes, calculations, or decisions related to the price offered.
