At Executive Compass, our bid and tender writing services provide you with a fixed-fee, no obligation quote for each project.

Expert bid and tender writing services and support

Our proven approach to bid and tender writing services supports us to maintain a success rate in excess of 85% across all bids.

At Executive Compass, we recognise that successful tendering requires a tailored approach. As part of our bid and tender writing service, one of our professional bid writers will use  persuasive and compelling narrative to showcase your company and highlight your key differentiators and unique selling points. By outsourcing bid writing services from us, you can be confident in knowing that we will tailor each bid response to your organisation, the tender opportunity and the buyer’s preferences, as outlined in the tender documents. This ensures your bid fully aligns with the requirements and specification of the tender, so your response stands out from the competition and scores the most marks available.

What does a good tender response look like?

A good tender response should be persuasive, detailed and tailored to the buyer, opportunity and contracts to be highly competitive.

Our in-house bid writers follow our tried-and-tested bid writing methodology for producing a bespoke, high-quality response:

  1. The bid response is compliant with all requirements outlined in the Invitation to Tender (ITT), contract specification and other documents within the tender pack
  2. All elements of the question have been comprehensively addressed, with no gaps or omissions risking loss of marks from the evaluators
  3. Content within the bid response has a clear, logical structure, with graphics/images, tables, bullet points and white space deployed where appropriate, producing a professional, easy-to-read document
  4. Line-by-line content, such as specific processes and procedures, is smooth, flows well and is easy to follow, avoiding technical language or industry-specific jargon within tenders.

Although each tender response is evaluated individually, it is crucial that the submission as a whole is cohesive, consistent and impactful.

As part of our service, our consultants also provide bid management throughout, working closely with our clients to develop and integrate key differentiators, known as bid win themes, to demonstrate why your organisation is best positioned to deliver the work or service. This aspect will vary from client to client depending on your organisation.

In a bid response, you may wish to highlight a particular system or technology that saves the buyer time or money or showcase examples of how you add value outside the scope of works. Or, if you are the incumbent contractor, you can leverage your experience to demonstrate how you are best positioned to continue your working partnership with the contracting authority.

    Our team of bid and tender writing consultants

    To ensure they are best prepared to support you with our bid and tender writing services, our bid writing consultants and tender writing consultants complete a rigorous training programme designed and led by Managing Director Matthew Walker and Training Services Manager Stephen Murray.

    This programme ensures they have comprehensive knowledge on effective bid strategy and how to produce  targeted, persuasive, high-quality bid responses.

    Following acceptance of our bespoke quotation, you will be assigned and introduced to your lead bid writer for each project. For large or complex tenders, multiple bid writers may support the project to ensure all bid responses are drafted, reviewed and amended in time for your final review. If necessary, we can also advise you on how to prepare for a  tender interview following a tender submission. Our expert approach helps you meet the submission deadline with a well-prepared bid, even in advance of any short turnaround deadlines.

    For repeat clients who have developed a strong working relationship with one of our bid writers in particular, we will assign them as your account manager for future bid responses. This ensures continuity and supports their familiarity with your working processes, procedures and approach to the writing process.

    This will also include sending daily contract notices and tender opportunities hosted on our Government Contract Notices page, or directly through the Government’s Find a Tender service.

    Improve your win rate with bid and tender writing services

    To provide our clients with the highest chances of success, our bid and tender writing services are comprehensive and holistic, to ensure you receive support with every aspect of the tender submission process.

    If you only require support from our bid and tender writing services with certain sections, topics or questions within a bid, for example social value, then our bid writing and tender writing experts will flex our support to meet your requirements via a collaborative approach. We can also provide complete, end-to-end bid management support, as well as training, reviews and consultancy for each project, alongside our bid writing services.

    The approach we use for our bid and tender writing services is structured and systematic, reflecting our understanding of the tendering process. Over 75% of our work comes via repeat business, a testament to our focus on winning tenders and on our high-quality client service. By leveraging our proposal writing knowledge and writing skills across all industries and sectors, our bid writing consultants can advise on best practices, industry standards, and developing your bidding strategy for public sector tenders.

    For larger, more complex bids, we can help to identify bid win themes, bid writing strategy, and core competence. Smaller bids are often more straightforward. In these cases, we focus on translating existing practices into a compelling narrative that scores high marks with the buyer’s evaluation committee for public sector opportunities.

    Sometimes, bid deadlines can be shorter than expected, and our clients ask us if we are able to complete tenders in time to meet the deadline. Unlike other bid writing consultancies, our team is made up of full-time directly employed professional bid writers. They provide expert bid and tender writing services, including bid review services, bid management, pre-bid consultancy and interim bid support, as well as thorough, consultative advice. In usual cases where a deadline is longer, we assign one bid writer per bid, but for shorter notice tenders, we can assign multiple writers to a last-minute submission to ensure the project is completed on time.
