here "un marché" 08:36 Jul 22, 2020
is one single procurement contract, referring to the contract itself but also to the whole associated procedure.
At the stage where the buyer has published "un marché" it would be called a "tender" or "procurement tender". Only later, when a supplier is selected it would become a "contract".
'marché classifié' / 'marché sensible' / 'marché libre' at the stage of "a company initiating a call for tenders" would be about various types of "tenders"
The "tendering" of supply contracts is often compulsory for public bodies, but many companies also do it.
