Bid Writing and Proposal Response.
Deliver A Winning Bid/Tender Response.

It is highly likely that at some point, you will be asked to pitch for a job formally. To ensure success, you will need to work with experienced and highly skilled bid writers, bid managers and consultants who can help you with your proposal responses.

We have written bids for law firms, engineering consultancies, architectural practices, construction companies, and accountancy firms to both the private sector and national and local government entities.

Tracking Opportunities and Positioning early.

It is no real secret that most successful bidders win not solely because of the formal bid/tender response they submit. Instead, it is the work they have put in well before the tender was released to the market. Pre-positioning is essential.

If the key decision-makers don’t know you, your chances of success are almost non-existent. From the people issuing the formal RFPs (Request For Proposal) point of view, if you haven’t invested any time in getting to know them ahead of bidding for the work, why would they pick you when others have invested that time in them?

We can help you track potential opportunities and develop a relationship-building pipeline and wider marketing and communication activities to help you position early, as part of our proposal response services.

We’ll be straight with you from the outset. If we feel that other competitors are entrenched and your chances of success are low, we’ll tell you. Then we will either agree on a strategy to not respond to the RFP, one that builds a relationship with your client, or we’ll discuss how we might ‘change the game’ by trying a different way of winning the work
