Bidding for public or private sector contracts can be tough, but remains a crucial part in developing your growth as an organisation. Depending on your sector and the service[s] you offer, achieving bid/tender success is a sustainable and achievable way to grow your business. Our Bid Management services have been developed to cater for all of your business needs – broken down into simplistic services to meet you, head-on, at every level.
Bid Ready
If you are new to bids/tenders, it can be quite daunting and challenging at first, which is why we are here to help you get ready. This service will see us develop your bid library, provide an action plan for you based on intense business-critical gap analysis, develop a 6-page credentials document (covering your unique selling points, experience and key resource), and ensure all organisational policies are created and in date.

Bid Capture
Capture Management is key into winning large scale deals and business, which is why we have a reduced package covering one week’s worth of consultancy which allows us to closely analyse pre-market engagement activity, competitor analysis, customer pain points, and action planning for effective solution modelling. You can utilise this time however you like based on where the procurement stages are at.
Starting from £2,500
Bid Qualification
A lot of time and resource is wasted when it comes to decision making on whether to ‘bid or not to bid’. This stage of the bidding process is crucial and can save you a lot of time and money in pursuing opportunities that you may inevitably fail due to lack of due diligence. It is super important to qualify the right opportunities for the best chances of securing work. Let us help you decipher the bid/tender requirements and help make an informed decision on whether to bid or not to bid.
Starting from £300
Bid Planning
Managing a bid/tender end-to-end can be challenging and overwhelming, especially if you have a day job to contend with. Our Bid Planning service helps you get started on that all important process, by providing a compliance checklist for your submission, along with meticulous writing plans and completed storyboard templates to support you to initiate the bid work yourself. We will plan it – you will deliver it. This is a bespoke plan specifically structured to meet compliance and the highest quality in your proposition.
Starting from £550
Bid Writing
You can outsource all the Bid Writing to one of our many esteemed professionals here at EVOLVE, which will allow you to focus on other priorities internally. You will have access to a dedicated Bid Director on all projects, where we will extract information from your team, challenge such information to ensure we exceed the commissioner’s expectations, and create high quality responses, directly in line against the maximum scoring/evaluation criteria.
Starting from £550
Bid Design
Our network of Design Professionals can make your proposal stand out amongst competitors by using your company brand to compliment striking graphics, proven reader engagement, and what visually works best in your sector across bespoke sales collateral. If you are not restricted by proposal limitations, then we suggest to go that little bit further and elevate your response by having this designed using state-of-the-art software.
Starting from £550
Bid Training
Our training isn’t like other bid training, but is constantly developed with clients and sectors in mind. We provide up to 6 training modules which feature varying levels of expertise across the whole bidding journey. Go for multiple modules to get a discount or if you just need help in the one module – we have you covered. All remote training (via teams) is led by our Director team and can be delivered up to 10 people at once. This includes: (1) Commissioner Portals; (2) Document Handling & Clarification Management; (3) Bid Strategy & Qualification; (4) Bid Planning & Management; (5) Bid Writing & Reviews; and (6) Uploads, Compliance, and Submission.

Bid Presentation
A lot of the time, you have to be in front of the commissioner and present your bid back to them to score subsequent marks in their evaluation process. Our Bid Presentation service allows us to intensely and critically assess your delivery of such bid commitments, respond in accordance with additional requirements, develop a full PowerPoint deck, and we even offer a mock-presentation and feedback service from our Director team. If it is time to ‘WOW’ the commissioner, we will provide the toolkit and confidence to do so.
Starting from £800
Bid Review
If you have what it takes to manage your own bid, but would like that second pair of eyes via a ‘critical friend’ approach – then our Bid Review service is for you. Our Director team will review all written work to ensure your approach remains effective, efficient, and most importantly – winnable. We have collectively over 100-years’ experience across our network, with 30-years’ experience just between our internal Director team. This is a popular service and the more affordable option to ensure you ‘hit the mark’ with bid responses.
Starting from £550

Bid Award Services
Once you have secured the contract, it is important to make sure you have all of your affairs in order, to provide strong reassurance with the commissioner that you are ready to deliver. Let us analyse all of the documentation associated with your win, establish key actions for your operational delivery team to maximise readiness, and make sure you understand the expectations from day one. You have won the work – now it is time to deliver this effectively. We are here to make it easier.
