 Contractual Brief:
A contractual brief is a voluntary, deliberate and legal binding agreement. This can be shared with two or more competent parties. Contracts mainly contain written content but can be spoken or implied. A contractual relationship is evidenced by;

Tender
  
     Tender is an unconditional offer of money or perfomance. A tender can help the tendering party from penalty of non payment or non performance. It may also be a sealed bid or offer to respond to a request for tenders containing detailed information on terms and conditions which are associated with a potential contract. So therefore you pitch for something.

bids, and it is annoymous how much anyone else is tendering,
they are therefore forced to go straight to their best price.
