Abstract
In recent years projects have gotten more complex in order to meet the societal demands.- Reference Big infrastructural projects require such specific knowledge and skillsets that individual companies, whether consultancy or contractor, are finding it increasingly hard to fullfill all the requested requirements. Either in the sense of technical/operational knowledge, or just the not having enough capacity (manpower) to fullfill the required work. In order to secure all the requirements in these complex contracts companies have been producing extensive tender proposals. These require a big initial investment, are labour intensive and require a vast and permanently available knowledge network in the company. All competitors are forced into producing this initial effort, however, only one can win the project.
Therefore it is becoming a more common phenomenon that companies collaborate on writing tenders for projects. By doing so, sharing not only knowledge but also resources. In doing so they mitigate the risk of not
