It IS possible to win any of them since winners are being announced daily. I rarely contest for any of them because it requires planning, monitoring and strategy. I think usually you need to form a team to consistently winning tenders.

So you want to win but don't want to put much effort into it? That's what I want too.
 
You can have fun without winning the tender Turk. Here is how I do it:
1. Enter the tender.
2. Do nothing.
3. After I lost I send the winner a message to congratulate and tell them that I let him/her win. Some players would share the winning prize with me because I let them win.

I have to say competing for tenders really pisses me off.  Several times right up until the last day I have had over 90% market share in a city, but on the day of the tender I am blown away and dropped down to under 1%, usually by the same players.  I gave up applying for awhile, but recently tried again with the same sad results.  I think it is just another way for the top 6 - 10 players to expand their dominance on the game and continue to discourage new or smaller players from playing the game long term.  
 
Maybe there should be a limit to how many tenders a player can apply for per month or something like that, in order to give other players a chance to win a couple of tenders and more importantly expand the game.  Having a few players completely dominate any game is never good for newer players, smaller players or the game itself.
 
The enterprise auctions are a perfect example of player dominance.  When a big player wants an asset he/she just outbids everyone else.  I've seen assets sell for 100B and only have an asset value of 50M.  Does that make real business sense?  The point is because they are so big, it doesn't affect their overall empire and are right back the next day doing the same thing all over again.
 
I would really like the tender system looked at closely to allow more players to win a few VIRTS and feel encouraged about their part and future with this game.

nice strategy Well
 
Arrigus, about auctions. many of us have lots of money, which we want to spend for those assets Well and to that amount of money we came with our work ;) so keep working and in the future you might also participate in auctions for 100 B and more ;)

It is real to win a tender even for red companies like me (on Lien I mean), not very easy, but anyway you have to do something to win any contest Yes

I think you got me wrong. I am putting effort in winnig them but the winners are quite to hard to win Well specialy janki on lien. Many times happens, that in tender which is lasting for 3 turns I'm leading in first 2 (and there isn't her/his company in the results) but then on the last turn bang, my sale is for instance 50 million and her/his is 500 million
 
but I'll keep trying and I think I'll soon start wining Very we!

I had the same a couple of times. I don't know what happened.  I think a strategy for winning a sales-in-the-shop tender is to create a warehouse, export some of the stuff to that warehouse, sell it to the shop for an awfull low price.  Sell it at the norml price untill the day of tendering.  You can then drop your price drastically, sell an awful amount (provided it was in stock- and still make a profit in the shop as this is what normally counts.
 
I'll try in the near future and come back to you guys.
 
By the way I do not feel for limiting tender participation. I actually think there should be more tenders- and more evenly spread over all the countries and cities. Sometimes I feel spain and GB are priviliged.  But I can be wrong-I did not apply any statistics here.
 
Keep on playing!

Turkbostjan, I'd try to increase sales in the first 2 updates - more than 50% of market (more advertising, branding,  better quality, right price) and do a price adjustment for the last day. Good luck!
