Submitting a successful bid is critical to winning contracts and growing your business, yet putting together a tender document is often tedious and painful, and one can get caught and stumble along the way. Usually, the winning company is not the best company, but they can complete and meet all the bidding documents correctly, so why their competitors are eliminated? not because of the price, but because they didn’t do it right.
- Do your research: Before submitting a tender, research the client, their needs, and what they are looking for in a contractor. Make sure you understand the requirements and the scope of work, as well as any constraints or limitations.
- Highlight your unique value: Your proposal should demonstrate the added value you bring to the project. Highlight your strengths and unique selling points that differentiate you from your competitors. This could be your expertise, your approach to the project, or your team’s experience.
- Use clear and concise writing: The proposal should be easy to read, with clear headings and subheadings. Avoid jargon and technical terms unless necessary, and use plain language that is easy to understand. Ensure your proposal is well-structured, with an introduction, body, and conclusion.
- Provide evidence and examples: Use evidence and examples to support your claims about your skills and experience. Include case studies, testimonials, and references from previous clients. This will give the client confidence in your ability to deliver the project.
- Offer a competitive price: While price is not always a decisive factor, it is important to offer a competitive bid. Make sure you understand the client’s budget and provide a transparent breakdown of costs.
- Pay attention to detail: Make sure your proposal is complete, accurate, and error-free. Check all your spelling and ensure that you have addressed all the client’s requirements. Make sure your pricing is accurate and detailed, and that you have included all the necessary documentation.
- Submit on time: Finally, make sure you submit your tender on time. Late submissions may not be considered, so make sure you allow plenty of time for preparation and submission. If possible, submit your proposal before the deadline to give yourself a better chance of being considered.
