Construction Tenders
- Are you struggling to win construction tenders and want to know why?
- If there an important contract you need to secure or retain and you need guidance?
- Is your existing tender team overworked and you require some temporary assistance?
We’re here to help.
The construction industry is a major driving force of the economy requiring a vast range of different services. When completing construction tenders, it’s important to demonstrate that your business provides the best value, as opposed to being the cheapest. Construction companies, Government Departments and Developers are educated buyers and use construction tenders to make quantified procurement decisions.
They are methodical and strategic in the way they procure, and will are experienced in administering the tender process. Our tender consulting services help companies across Australia write winning construction tenders.
Writing to win
Our bid writing consultants have helped construction companies in Sydney, Melbourne, Perth and across Australia win construction tenders. We do this by staying organised, identifying what matters to the clients and implementing tender best practice methodologies. When putting together and submitting a construction tender, it is critical to:
- Demonstrate to the client that you have the track record and credibility to complete the project.
- Communicate the expertise of your team and your experience working together to ensure you deliver a quality project
- Focus on the issues that matter to the client. For example, if you are submitting a government tender, Customer Experience may be critical as might community communication. It’s important that you talk about your ability to manage all stakeholders as a major contractor.
- Make sure it looks good. graphics are important, and infographics are useful to communicate complex tasks in an easy to understand and effective manner.
What is best practice
In order to win a construction tender you need to go in with a quality tender and a reasonable price. We say reasonable price because there is no real benefit in winning a contract that is not profitable. Winning construction tenders requires:
- Clearly articulating your experience
- Adopting an active voice throughout the document
- Ensuring all of your supporting documentation is completely up to date
- Developing win themes and integrating them throughout the document
- Writing a quality executive summary
