Too many times we hear about people going for lots of tenders and not winning any – this is often due to not qualifying tenders properly ie ‘can we really win it’. If you are looking for new business and you find a tender, it can be very exciting when you go for it – the anticipation of a big win… but when you get rejected (once again) it is very depressing! Assuming that you are Fit to Tender, the simple solution is properly qualifying tenders every time.

Here are some ideas: Go for quality not quantity – this will improve your hit ratesAsk yourself ‘can we win it? Is it really our business?’ Consider the contract value – contracts are often not given to organisations if the contract value represents more than 20-30% of their turnover (are you big enough to service the contract?). Can you demonstrate working for similar types of customers doing similar work (and provide good references)? Time is too short to waste on tenders that you are probably not going to win!
