Tenders

Successful tenders are built on evidence, structure and persuasion. Written to answer exactly what the panel is scoring against, on time and in the right format.

I write and manage tender submissions for council, government, and private sector contracts, often restructuring technical information into outcomes-led documents that evaluators can score with confidence. We identify the requirements and sell themes early to ensure your submission meets the exact criteria, shows your capability and inspires trust and confidence.

I work with you on:

  • A submission built around the evaluation criteria, not a generic pitch

  • Strategic direction of your bid and support evidence

  • Identifying the scoring gaps and evidence needed before we write a word

  • Clear, compelling writing that respects the reader's time

  • Managing every stage, from first consultation through to submission and post-submission review

  • Government and Council tenders are scored against fixed criteria by evaluators who don't know you. These criteria vary from council to council which is important to be aware of.

    Every response needs to answer the question asked, in the order it's asked, with evidence that backs it up.

    A proposal is completely different. This allows more room for creative and strategic thinking in line with the business objective.

  • Most likely. Tell me the deadline and the documents involved, and I'll let you know what's realistic.

    Tender timelines are often tight by nature .

  • No. You bring the technical expertise. I bring the structure, the language evaluators respond to, and the ability to translate what you know into a scoring-friendly answer.

  • Evaluators aren't looking for creativity, they're looking for proof. We focus on concise answers, specific evidence & results, and language that maps directly to the criteria being scored.

  • Strong capability doesn't always translate into a well-scored answer. Often it's a structure problem or lack of clarity in the answers, and that’s what I can fix.

  • First, we'll have a conversation and assess the tender you're interested in, looking at whether you have enough evidence to progress.

    If yes, we'll work together on collating evidence to answer questions and win themes to ensure you stand out.

  • I focus on industries I have direct experience in, but if you'd like to discuss your tender, I may be able to help. If it's not the right fit, I can refer you to other bid writers who may be better suited to your industry.
