How to prepare a bid

A re-tender asks for the same building blocks every time. Have these ready before the notice publishes, most take weeks to assemble:

• Cyber Essentials, and Cyber Essentials Plus if the framework requires it
• Up-to-date insurances (employer, public and professional indemnity)
• Financial evidence: your latest accounts and turnover figures
• Two or three case studies mapped to this framework's scope
• Core policies: equality, health and safety, data protection
• A capacity statement showing you can deliver at the required volume
• Confirm the exact re-tender dates against the source notice; frameworks are frequently extended.

Start a trial to follow this framework and be alerted before the window opens.
