It certainly isn't a common US term. I would interpret it as folding
your offer sheet into thirds ((two folds) so that the information is
concealed from casual view.
There is a similar common expression, two-fold, that means the offer
or suggestion has two parts or accomplishes two things.

In our last episode,

the lovely and talented Myeng Jo, Kim

"Two-fold" may be the word intended. If so, the most likely interpretation
in American English would be:
"Your offer must be received in duplicate by the technical department"
which in turn means, you must submit the offer and a copy of the
offer.
"Two-folded" might be a term used in some printing business to describe
a product that is folded twice, such as a brochure or booklet which
might be either accordian folded, letter folded or quarto folded.
This seems unlikely in the context.
