At The Tender Team, we have an 85% success rate helping businesses in Western Sydney write and win RFPs, RFTs and tenders.

This is an excellent question especially since local benefits and lock knowledge is so important in Western Sydney infrastructure bids. We will work with you to talk about how you will engage local suppliers, local contractors, local workers and also support the local community. Our writers are based in Western Sydney (and the City) and understand how the local economy and community works. We actively research the local demographics and community paint points, and address these points in the bid.
Social procurement, diversity and sustainability criteria are critical in NSW tenders and government contracts are generally never won on price alone.
We will work with you to develop realistic, evidenced based and achievable commitment to social procurement that demonstrate that you will create local jobs, procure from social suppliers and deliver on the triple bottom line.
The best course of action is to download and review the tender documents. Once you have done that, you can assess whether the bid or tender is worth bidding for and allocating resources to.

Our bid writers excel at this. We will help you maximise your local economic benefit score by talking about how you will employ personnel from across Sydney and greater Sydney, how you will employ local subcontractors and ensure the downstream economic and social benefits flow back into NSW> We will also support these claims with evidence.
