Course Description

About this module

Tender writing can feel overwhelming, especially for small teams. Learn how to cut through the confusion, focus on what matters, and submit a bid that’s sharp, well-structured, and speaks the buyer’s language.

By the end of the session, you’ll know how to break down tender documents, structure your bid for maximum impact, and highlight what makes you stand out. You’ll also have practical tools to manage the process smoothly, whether you’re working solo or with a small team.

Course Modules

1. Understand What’s Being Asked

We’ll start by looking at how to get to the heart of what the buyer really wants. How to break the documents down and make sure you’re clear on what’s being asked, what’s important, and what absolutely can’t be missed.

2. Write Strong, Tailored Responses

Next, we’ll look at how to write answers that hit the mark. We’ll show you how to keep things clear and focused, tailor your responses to the specific questions, and avoid falling into the trap of sounding too generic.

3. Structure for Impact

We’ll go through how to organise your bid in a way that flows well, is easy to follow, and makes it simple for evaluators to see that you’ve covered everything. It’s about building a strong, clean structure that works every time.

4. Showcase Your Strengths

I will show you how you can go beyond just meeting the brief. You will learn how to bring out your strengths, highlight what makes your business different, and show why you’re a great fit for the contract.

5. Work as a Team

Finally, we’ll cover how to get your team working together smoothly. We’ll look at who should do what, how to keep things moving, and how to manage the submission without any last-minute drama.
