Bid Planning & Strategy

We’ve helped large NHS Trusts, international software companies and leading facilities management firms to develop winning bid strategies – both on one off bids, and across their entire operation. We offer Competitor Analysis, Capture Planning, Gap Analysis, Solution Design, Bid/No-Bid Workshops, and Training/Development on everything from bid writing through to bid strategy. You can read more about each of these services below.

Competitor Analysis

With our Competitor Analysis work, we will gather intelligence about your competitors’ strengths, weaknesses, financial standing, strategic positioning, or any existing affiliations. This data is used in your arsenal to establish your winning themes, spotlighting the unique advantages your organisation can bring to the buyer.

Capture Planning

Helping you drill down into the opportunity, examine your preparedness, explore your competitors and discuss your financial approach using a combination of tools and workshops. Our detailed report will enable you to make informed decisions about the next stage of the bidding process.

Gap Analysis

Helping you identify strengths and analyse gaps against our extensive experience of optimising responses to tender specifications and buyer scoring matrices. This process empowers you with a plan of action to develop your business before you undertake your next bid.

Solution Design

With our breadth of experience, technical expertise and the subject matter experts in our team we can support you to illustrate, iterate and refine your service/delivery models and overall solution design to give you the best chance of success in your bid.

Training & Developing
