Tender Readiness Audit

$990 fixed price · 5 business days

Send us the tender and your existing documents — insurances, licences, safety documentation, capability evidence, past responses. We assess everything against the tender's actual requirements and deliver a written report:

  • [01]
    A clear go/no-go callAn honest assessment of whether this tender is winnable for your business — with reasons. "Don't bid this one" is advice that pays for itself.
  • [02]
    Compliance gap tableEvery mandatory requirement, graded: have it / have it but can't evidence it / don't have it — with a fix action for each.
  • [03]
    Evaluation criteria mapWhere the points actually sit, and what evidence wins them — so effort goes where the scoring is.
  • [04]
    Prioritised fix listOrdered against the closing date, so the runway becomes a week-by-week plan.
  • [05]
    45-minute debrief callWe walk you through the report and answer the hard questions.

How it works

  1. Send the tender and your documentsWe supply a simple checklist of what to gather. Most businesses already have more than they think.
  2. Report delivered within 5 business daysFaster turnaround available when a closing date demands it.
  3. Debrief callAnd if the verdict is go, we can help develop the response.

Why most bids fail

Not capability — evidence.

Labour hire licensing. OH&S systems. Insurance currency. Induction requirements. Social procurement obligations. Most businesses do the right things every day and have never documented them — and tenders are scored on what's on the page, not what happens on site.

That gap is fixable. And it's a lot cheaper to fix before you bid than to lose and wonder why.

If the answer is go

Tender response development from $2,500. Win themes, compliance matrix, structured drafting and final review — done with you, against your deadline. Most clients start with the audit; ask about development on the debrief call.
