The Built Environment – Winning Construction Tenders

Winning significant contracts in construction, infrastructure and civil engineering is all but impossible without a sound grasp of the bidding and tendering process. Procurement rules are usually strict and highly prescriptive – they need to be followed carefully so you don’t get marked down or disqualified on a technicality. Just as importantly, you need the skills and confidence to present your solution effectively and persuasively.

Contracts are rarely awarded on the basis of price alone.  Success usually means persuading the client and making your case based on the price-quality balance and whole-life costs of the project. This argument needs careful structuring and presentation to be convincing. The way your team presents your business solutions will have a massive impact on the confidence the awarding authority has in your capabilities.

The Bid Coach helps businesses through all stages of the construction tender process:

• Ensuring pre-qualification questionnaires (PQQs) provide the essential information 
• Interpreting tender documents to identify the client’s critical issues
• Reviewing your bid for clarity, ease of reading, completeness and persuasiveness
• Presentation skills coaching to help you reinforce your message
• Competitive Dialogue coaching to help you put across your case and successfully negotiate two-stage tenders
