Aged Care

Our experience helping clients with aged care industry bids and tenders is extensive. We understand all aspects of the industry from the medical side of it to the contruction and property side of it.

We have helped a number of organisations win aged care tenders through developing a compelling value proposition, clearly and concisely communicating your key points of difference and why your organisation should be appointed to provide the product or service. The sector is highly regulated, and it is important to submit a bid that complies with the requirements and assures the reader of your credibility and capability to deliver.

In addition to navigating the complex regulation in place in the aged care tender, you need to provide appropriate supporting documentation for your tender response, and ensuring it complies with ISO or other requirements.

Our consultants will help you compile a bid that is compelling, and will convince the reader not only of your capability to deliver, but also your experience, expertise and know-how to deliver. We have assisted businesses that work in the aged care sector including suppliers of product and operators.
