Writing Winning Proposal and Tenders in the Cairns Region
We have a track record of helping local business in Cairns write winning bids. For example, our team:
- Assisted a Cairns based earthmoving contractor to secure a $10M contract with Council to develop a waterskiing park and other associate groundworks. This was a substantial contract in a regional area. It involved the initial submission as well as the subsequent negotiation and re-submission of the bid with an amended design (the Council reduced the size and scope of the project). We put together the winning bid and our client was ultimately successful.
- Assisted a law firm to secure a contract with the state government for the provision of legal services across three panels. This was a critical appointment for our client as a large percentage of their current fees came from the state government. One of their lead partners had recently left the firm, and they wanted to grow the client by expanding their service offering across two additional practice areas (insurance and property). They were also a relatively small law firm and needed to write a compelling bid to secure appointment to the panel over some larger Brisbane based firms. – Assisted a law firm to secure a contract with the state government for the provision of legal services across three panels.
