Guide to writing winning tenders in Bathurst
Localise your bid: If you are writing a bid to Bathurst Regional Council or a locally based government department, you need to ensure your bid has a local focus and flavour. I.e. talk about how by appointing your firm, the knock-on effects of the contract will flow through to the local community. If you use local suppliers or have supported local charities or other initiatives, ensure you talk about that and provide evidence of this.
Be practical and pragmatic about methodology and implementation. This is an opportunity to show the reader that you have thought through how to deliver the services or product associated with the contact. Bring up any potential challenges and talk about how you plan to overcome them. It’s also a great opportunity to talk about the local specific challenges that come with the contract and demonstrate your local knowledge around what they are and how you plan to deal with them. For example, if you are a building company bidding for maintenance services to a stadium located near a local school, you may incorporate into your methodology limiting the movement of trucks for any major works during school drop off and pick up times.
Write concisely and supporting what you say with evidence. This is critical. You need to support what you say with evidence. Testimonials are helpful as well as documented proof. In addition, include numbers and quantify facts where you can in your bid to give it more credibility.
Tailor your bid or tender: You need to take the time to tailor your experience, expertise, team profiles and overall capability to the specific tender. The procurement teams that review your bid can easily see through a cut-and-paste bid approach. They will want to know that you have written the tender for them and taken the time to develop a quality bid.
