2BC Tenders

Brendan has been providing tendering and bid consultancy for nine years working with clients across the island of Ireland. Brendan has an excellent track record in securing public and private sector tendering opportunities across the UK and Ireland.

Working together with Brendan will enable your organisation to develop a strategic focus to winning tenders as part of your organisation’s growth goals including:

Pre-Tender – How to:

• Identify relevant procurement opportunities for your company. This includes valuable sub-threshold opportunities that are not widely advertised to the public.
• Create an effective Bid/No Bid decision process to quickly assess potential tenders.
• Develop a clear understanding of how we are going to win each particular tender (bid strategy).
• Build a 'Tender Library' of commonly asked information (forms, certificates, insurance) to speed up tender completion.

Tender Writing – How to:

• Use the Procurement Portals to submit our tenders and ask clarification questions.
• Organise our team (even a team of one) to complete great tenders and prevent rushed submissions.
• Actually answer the question being asked! Making it easier for evaluators to award us marks.
• Present our team’s knowledge in a manner that evaluators can easily understand and award marks ('Tender Translation').
• Price tenders that balance being competitive but also valuable to your organisation.

Post-Tender – How to:

• Gain clear and constructive feedback from all submissions regardless of result.
• Use feedback to continuously improve our future tenders.

In terms of sector experience, Brendan has been able to help a wide range of organisations including Construction, Facilities Management, ICT, Utilities, Healthcare, Design services (Brand, Graphic, Print), Supply & Install, Software Development and 3^rd/Voluntary sectors. Brendan can also assist the management of Consortia bids to create cohesive and successful submissions.
