They’re normally high value and complex. For example, we’ve supported bids ranging from a couple of million pounds up to £3.5bn. We’re practiced at all the public procurement procedures, including competitive dialogue, frameworks, innovation partnerships, single source, and we also have international bidding experience. All of which gives us hands-on experience of the things we consult and train on.

Take a look at our BidEdge services
We don’t measure it. Why? There are too many variables in play that are out of our control, so it wouldn’t seem right to boast about it. Plus, you don’t need us for the Easy Wins — you need us for the Hard-To-Wins.
What we measure instead is the number of referrals, repeat business and relationship growth. Referrals stem from clients’ direct experiences and satisfaction, which can be more insightful and reliable than impersonal quantitative metrics. Repeat business is when clients come back for more because they’ve experienced first-hand our ability to deliver results. Relationship growth is proof that we build trusted client relationships. We think these measures are far more relevant when choosing who you want to work with.
Do we play a key role in positioning your company to win? Absolutely. Do we celebrate when you do? You bet. Do we feel a big sense of pride that we played our part? It’s why we do what we do. But to claim credit for your success? That’s just not our style.
Most clients get their first taste of working with us on a live bid with our BidEdge bid support services. They then buy BidSkills when they realise their teams would benefit from more know-how. Eventually, they want consistently better bidding as standard with our BidCode® change programme.
The process for buying our service is straightforward:
Step 1: We discuss your requirements and propose a solution crafted to you
Step 2: We jointly confirm the scope of work and the plan
Step 3: You send us a PO (and on-board us as a supplier if that’s how you roll)
Step 4: We begin delivering the agreed services, dovetail with your team, and report progress
Step 5: We conduct a managed exit and initiate ongoing relationship management.
