## Summary

A useful tender brief defines outcomes, interfaces and evidence requirements so bidders price the same work. Naming a board alone leaves too many construction decisions unresolved.

## Practical method

Describe intended use, exposure, supporting structure, access constraints and the required installation documentation. Identify who designs the structure and who coordinates drainage, waterproofing and adjoining trades. For an illustrative municipal terrace, request a method for phased access, waste collection and handover records. Ask bidders to identify assumptions and deviations rather than silently pricing a different system. Keep product comparisons tied to relevant performance evidence; a long list of unrelated test labels does not clarify suitability.

## Planning and verification

Compare complete systems for the stated use, including supporting structure, connections, drainage and maintenance access. Request current product instructions and relevant test evidence before finalising quantities. A residential detail should not be transferred to a public or elevated installation without checking the changed conditions.

## Handover and maintenance

Record the selected profile, batch, approved drawings and maintenance owner. Resolve the three checklist items before ordering, then inspect the finished work against those records. Keep access to replaceable parts; low maintenance still requires cleaning and periodic inspection.

## Writing a WPC installation tender brief — What should be confirmed before ordering?

A useful tender brief defines outcomes, interfaces and evidence requirements so bidders price the same work. Naming a board alone leaves too many construction decisions unresolved. Confirm the three project checks below with the supplier and the responsible designer. A sample establishes appearance, not approval of the complete installation.
