Letter of Award

A letter of award is a letter that is sent to a bidder on a business related contract that has been awarded the contract. This type of letter is very common in auction situations, where multiple parties are bidding on the same job. For example, if a company was taking bids on contactors to expand their factory, they would send a letter of award to the contractor they chose to complete the job for them. Essential information to include in a letter of award include the following

Amount of award – the amount in monetary terms that the contract is for

Award date  - the date on which the award was made

Contract sign date – the date on which the final contract will be signed
