I upvoted you because I don’t award contracts, so I have no idea if that’s common practice but I hope your comment gets some visibility and discussion. It’s quite interesting to think about the value of our time or effort and how maximizing those isn’t a bribe, it’s just common sense.

Your boss asks you to go to the store to buy something, I don't know a flashlight. You can go to the store that is further away and get a lower price of the store very close and pay more.

For some reason this is different than if a flashlight sales person offereded you money to buy their flashlight.

Bribes of time are fine bribes of money aren't.
