‘Smart Bid’ Support

Comprehensive Tender and Bid support through review, proposal, preparation and submission to post support; we’ll help you in all areas to Prepare, Bid and Win!

As part of our ‘Smart Bid’ Support solution, we will identify suitable tenders, submission strategies and develop networks in order for you to successfully bid. All you need do is select the services that you require from our ‘SmartBid’ Menu in order to suit your individual requirements, and create a bespoke package that complements your business

PQQ and Tender Strategic Review, Preparation and Submission

PML Involvement

It is essential that your Bids are well structured, bespoke to your client, easy to read and to navigate. PML’s involvement can vary from advisory to complete proposal submission – as much input as you wish us to have.

We would go through your objectives and goal setting with you, and assess your ‘readiness’ for Bid applications through a Bid Strategy, compliance and Management review. We would help prepare your PQQ (Pre-Qualification Questionnaire), provide a solution design and complete full Tender submissions, with a focus on pricing to demonstrate your value for money and showcasing your unique selling points

Operational Development

Dependent on your current resources and time constraints, we can either take on full responsibility for PQQ or Tender completion, working in conjunction with your team in order to obtain relevant company documents that will be necessary for submission, or merely act in an advisory capacity, liaising daily or periodically with your own team in order to guide them towards successful completion. Whatever level of input from PML, we will ensure that you are ready, compliant and satisfied with any PQQ or Tender submission
