Our onboarding process is designed to be seamless, efficient, and entirely focused on your unique business needs. It all begins with a free, no-obligation Discovery Call. During this initial conversation, our expert consultants will take the time to truly understand your specific requirements, current challenges, and your ambitions for securing public or high-value private sector contracts. We’ll delve into your target industries, the types of tenders you’re interested in, and your current capabilities.
Following this in-depth discussion, we’ll get to work. Our team will then develop a comprehensive, bespoke proposal tailored precisely to your organisation. This isn’t a generic off-the-shelf solution; it’s a strategic roadmap outlining how Neuven Consult will partner with you to achieve your goals, whether that involves enhancing compliance, optimising your bid strategy, or providing targeted training. This personalised approach ensures you receive a plan that’s perfectly suited to drive your success.
Neuven Consult provides end-to-end, expert support to significantly boost your bid success rate. We cover every critical stage of the tender process, ensuring your proposals are not just submitted, but are designed to win.
Our comprehensive approach includes:
Opportunity Sourcing: We proactively identify relevant public and private sector tenders and frameworks that align with your business capabilities, ensuring you never miss a valuable opportunity.
Business Readiness Preparation: We help get your business in prime condition for bidding. This involves meticulous compliance audits and tailored training to ensure your processes, documentation, and team meet all required standards, making you ‘bid-ready’.
Strategic Bid Writing: Our specialist bid writers craft compelling, persuasive, and perfectly compliant proposals. We excel at articulating your unique value proposition, addressing buyer requirements, and telling your winning story in a way that truly stands out to evaluators.
Expert Review & Response: Before submission, we conduct thorough reviews of your bid content, ensuring accuracy, consistency, and maximum impact. We also guide you on responding effectively to clarifications and feedback during the tender process.
Seamless Submission & Post-Bid Support: We manage the entire submission process, ensuring all deadlines are met and documentation is delivered flawlessly. Our support extends beyond submission, with guidance for onboarding and ongoing compliance once you’ve secured your place on a framework or won a contract.
The time it takes to write a tender can vary significantly, as it largely depends on the complexity and scope of the specific opportunity. A smaller, less complex tender might require a few days of dedicated effort, while a large, multi-lot public sector framework application could demand several weeks or even months of intensive work. Factors influencing the timeline include:
Tender Value & Scope: Higher value or broader scope tenders naturally require more detailed responses.
Number of Questions & Word Limits: More extensive questionnaires and higher word counts mean more writing time.
Required Documentation: The volume and complexity of supporting documents (e.g., policies, financial data, case studies) can impact preparation time.
Client Readiness: How quickly your internal team can provide necessary information and approvals.
Clarification Periods: Time needed to seek clarification from the awarding body.
Neuven Consult’s expertise helps streamline this process. While we can’t shorten the tender period itself, our efficient methodology and dedicated bid writers ensure your response is prepared to the highest standard within the available timeframe, maximising your chances of success.
To successfully win public sector contracts, businesses generally need to meet several key requirements that demonstrate their capability, stability, and integrity. While specific criteria vary per tender, common non-negotiables include:
Financial Solvency & Stability: Your business must be solvent and demonstrate a strong financial history, often verified through checks on Companies House records. This assures awarding bodies of your ability to deliver on the contract.
Operational Capacity & Size: You must be able to demonstrate that your business is large enough and has the operational capacity to effectively support the scope and demands of the tender. This isn’t just about employee numbers, but also infrastructure, resources, and proven delivery models.
Established Trading History: Most public sector tenders require businesses to have been trading for a minimum period, typically over 12 months old. This provides evidence of stability and experience.
Compliance & Accreditations: Adherence to various legal, ethical, and industry-specific compliance standards (e.g., GDPR, Modern Slavery Act, Cyber Essentials, ISO certifications) is often mandatory.
Proven Track Record: The ability to provide relevant case studies and references for similar work delivered successfully in the past.
Neuven Consult helps businesses assess their readiness against these criteria and develop strategies to meet them, ensuring you’re positioned as a credible and capable supplier.
We are incredibly proud of our proven track record in helping businesses secure valuable public sector contracts. Neuven Consult boasts an exceptional 97.3% success rate on bid writing. This isn’t just a number; it translates into tangible results for our clients.
