EMC compiled and coordinated a very professional and effective tender process over a 10 month period on our behalf. The outcome of this tender process, and the experience of working with EMC over what is now approaching four years, is one I would recommend to anyone.

FAQs

Your questions, answered.

What are your payment terms?
We work on an industry standard structure, typically a 50% deposit upfront and the balance on submission. For ongoing clients we are happy to discuss flexible terms that support a long term partnership.
Do you work with both public and private sector bids?
Yes. We have extensive experience across both. Our clients include public sector bodies such as local government and the NHS, as well as private sector organisations. Our understanding of sector specific requirements helps your bid align with what buyers expect.
Can you help if we have already drafted our bid?
Absolutely. We offer three review options: Bid Review and Comment, a light-touch check for compliance and structure; Critical Review and Improve, a comprehensive review with suggestions to strengthen content; and Strategy, Review and Improve, in-depth support with strategic guidance from the start.
How long does it take to complete a bid?
Timelines vary with the complexity of each tender. Once we understand the documentation and specifications we give you an estimated timeframe. If deadlines are tight, we are skilled at working within challenging timelines without dropping quality.
Who will be handling my bid?
You are assigned a dedicated bid lead with relevant industry experience. They manage everything from understanding your requirements to final submission, and every bid goes through our rigorous quality assurance process.
What is your process for writing a bid?
Our structured process has six stages: bid kick-off, information capture, response creation, QA review, submission, and post-submission support. Each stage has review points for compliance, clarity and quality, and we work as an extension of your team throughout.
How do you determine the cost of a bid?
Every bid is different, so we price on the specific requirements of your tender. After reviewing the documents and discussing your needs we agree a cost that is feasible and manageable. We also offer a performance-based model, reducing our fee if the bid is unsuccessful.
What makes your bid writing service stand out?
Over 30 years of experience and deep knowledge across multiple sectors, combined with a genuinely collaborative approach. We tailor every bid to the tender's requirements, and our proven process maximises the quality and competitiveness of your submission.
