Four Steps to Win More Contracts

  1. Fill-in the online Bid Capability Assessment Questionnaire to identify gaps in your tender submission process.
  2. Attend specialist skills webinars to enhance your bid writing skills and develop your tender business model.
  3. Agree an action plan with an experienced advisor to identify key milestones, deliverables, and resources to submit winning bids.
  4. Participate in Meet the Buyer events and engage with key buyers and suppliers to access live bids.

Online Bid Capability Assessment Questionnaire

The online diagnostic questionnaire identifies gaps in key skills, growth aspirations, sector fit, and the bid-readiness of each company. Participants will be sent a report outlining their improvement areas with relevant recommendations, including guidance on policies to adopt, advice on enhancements to business model and financials, and signposting to relevant organisations.
