Onboarding/Sign On. Let’s Get Started
Depending on how you engage us, your onboarding session with us could be relatively brief or in-depth. We need to get to know you, and for our whole suite of services, including Tender Reader and Tender Writer, learn as much as possible about your business, who you’ve sold to, your USPs and much more.
First, based on your industry or the nature of the tender or grant you’re bidding for, we’ll assign one of our specialist tender writers to your project. They’ll be in touch within 1 day/ 8 hours to arrange a kick-off meeting.
During this meeting, you can share the key messages you want to get across in your bid and they’ll ask you a series of questions based on the information they’ll need to draft your response. Our writers carefully review all the tender documents on your behalf to ensure we gather all relevant content.
The meeting also provides an opportunity for you to agree on the review process with your writer. Would you prefer to read a first draft of the whole bid in full, or review and feedback question by question, for example?
Throughout the writing process, our colleagues will keep you informed on progress and ask follow-up questions as needed. This can be entirely email-based or through regular video calls – our approach is entirely flexible to your needs and preferences. We’ll also be in touch throughout the response production asking for copies of certificates, processes and anything else to improve our understanding of your business to elevate your response.
We’ll complete the tender or grant response document in full, leaving only the costings for you to complete. Our highly experienced proofreaders will then review everything to ensure the submission is of the highest quality and sells your offer to its fullest potential.
You will have a final version to review and amend, or approve, no less than three days before the submission deadline.
Finally, once you’re happy with everything we can slot the costs into the bid and submit on your behalf. We usually aim to submit 24 hours before the deadline.

Strategy Workshop
You are cordially invited to an immersive strategy workshop with our selected internal subject matter experts and the bid response team. Allow for approximately two hours for the creation of a production schedule.
Subsequent sessions will focus on the different aspects of the bid and generally take up to one hour at a time.
We’ll securely store all response materials online and invite you to view them as you need. Also, you’ll receive daily updates.
Don’t forget to give us access to your accounts, certificates, insurance documents, etc. There may be additional questions on the portal; these are crucial as they score you higher points, and we can answer them for you.
Reviews
We have two internal reviews: pink, then red. The pink one ensures that all the required answers are in place. Red is a scrutiny check – a fine-tooth analysis to make doubly sure that we’ve included everything we need to.
You will receive your document to review at least three days before submission.
There is no minimum commitment and you are able to cancel at any time. We would advise to give the process 6 months as some contracts can take time to become available.
Absolutely. You can self manage your subscriptions or you an email accounts@tenderresponse.co.uk and the team can do this for you.
Tender Response recognises that your tender submission is time-critical so that we will meet all our milestones.
And, your deadline will be set in stone. Depending on your project’s scope and size, we’d like to work closely with you as you need. Proactive contact will keep you on track and up to speed. Don’t forget: it’s an authentic, two-way collaborative process; there’s essential information that we will need from you. It’s a reasonably rigorous progression, but don’t be concerned. Tender Response will do the heavy lifting for you.

Are your documents and certificates up-to-date so you are ready to submit bids or tender responses?

There is a simple and easy to follow structure when writing responses to bid questions. Initial Question: Start with the question or requirement from the tender document.
