As a former automotive blogger and self-confessed petrolhead, I joined Executive Compass in December last year via their graduate scheme to kick-start a career in bid writing. Graduating as an English Language student from Newcastle University, the majority of my studies surrounded the use of persuasive language techniques in marketing and therapy. I joined Executive Compass along with two other graduates, Joel and Kate.

The nature of bidding for public- or private-sector contracts means that there is usually a short timescale from issue of a contract notice to the deadline for receipt of tenders.

2019 is off to a good start as we are celebrating our ten-year anniversary. We have been featured in NE Times to mark our tenth year in business, to discuss how far the business has come, and our stand-out projects and plans for 2019.

Is 2019 the year to improve your bid writing and secure more contracts? Our bid and tender writing training is CPD-certified and can help all bid writers and bid teams brush-up their skills and techniques, improve bid processes and win more contracts.

As the year comes to an end, it is typical for many firms to look ahead to create strategies for 2019. We look at what this may include for your bid writing and tendering plans.

It has been a busy year in the Executive Compass office. It's one year on since we relocated to a larger office space to deal with expansion and new services, and we reflect on the past year and provide a summary of what has been happening.
