"How do I write a winning bid?"
What are our strategic strengths as a candidate for the contract? What is the client looking for, and how can we best answer their needs? Using the OGSM-method, Bizaline helps you formulate the clear and convincing answers that lead to a successful bid. Together, we'll develop a strategic plan that helps your organization excel on the evaluation criteria.
The EFQM RADAR method is gaining in popularity among clients as a tool to evaluate bids. How can you use this method and apply it to the structure of your bid? And how do you write effective bid text in accordance with RADAR? Bizaline offers RADAR writing trainings and helps with the production and editing of high-quality content for your bid.
Important tender approaching? Bizaline helps you prepare with a comprehensive review of your previous bid(s), and we'll develop a process for the new bid that fits your organization. We'll prepare for the bid with practical tool kits and hands-on workshops - delivering a step change to your organization's bid & tender capacities.
"My work with tenders began when I was one of the pioneers to compete on the UK market with Abellio, the international daughter company of the NS (Dutch national railways). Since that time, I gained fifteen years' experience with competitive tenders in the Netherlands and abroad. Over the last few years with my colleagues at Bizaline, we've developed a systematic approach that delivers structural improvements in the quality of our clients' bids. Our approach is rooted in the RADAR method of the European Foundation for Quality Management. Recently, I've also been working more and more with clients seeking to professionalize their tender processes and contract management. Working on both sides of the public-private partnership has given me new and valuable insights in the things clients prioritize and value when they evaluate bids."
