Care sector only. No generalists.

Win care sector tenders your competitors can't

94% average quality score across 50+ care sector submissions. Zero compliance failures. We write what evaluators score — for supported living, domiciliary care, children's services, and patient transport.

Operations Director, Supported Living Provider

"We secured a 5-year, £890K contract after scoring 94% on quality. The next bidder scored 86%. JC Tenders found the gaps and fixed them."

Why bids fail

Why most care providers lose tenders they're qualified to win

It's not your service quality. It's how you're presenting it.

01

Failed on a technicality

Expired insurance. Wrong file format. Missing signature. These don't cost you points — they cost you the entire bid. We track 47 compliance checkpoints before you submit.

02

Described but didn't prove

Saying 'we provide excellent care' scores 2/5. Proving it with specific outcomes, tracked KPIs, and documented case studies scores 4–5/5. We extract and structure proof points you already have but aren't using.

03

Bid on everything, won nothing

Generic tender alerts flood you with irrelevant opportunities. We curate and tell you which ones to skip. Focus on fewer bids, win more contracts.

How we work

We don't write tenders. We engineer wins.

A four-step process built around how evaluators actually score responses.

Map criteria & evidence
Step 01

Map criteria & evidence

We identify what's scored before we write a word. Pass/fail requirements, weightings, and evidence gaps — all mapped in a compliance matrix.

Plan the response
Step 02

Plan the response

Response architecture with owners, word counts, and review stages. Everyone knows their deliverable and deadline. No chaos.

Draft to score
Step 03

Draft to score

Each answer written directly against evaluation criteria. Not generic capability statements. Specific, evidenced, scorable responses written for the evaluator's marking sheet.

Validate & submit
Step 04

Validate & submit

Final compliance check, portal formatting, submission validation. We've caught 100+ errors in final reviews — errors that would have disqualified otherwise strong bids.

Investment

Pricing that pays for itself

Fixed fees confirmed before work starts. One missed tender costs more than our annual retainer.

End-to-end tender writing. From pack review to submission-ready responses. Fixed scope. Fixed fee.

Quality assurance

Quality checks built into every submission

Before you submit, we run a compliance check, tighten each answer against the scoring criteria, and ensure your evidence and attachments match what the buyer asks for.

  • Full compliance matrix reviewed before submission
  • Every answer scored against evaluation criteria
  • Evidence and attachments cross-checked to spec
  • Final read-through for clarity, tone, and word count

FAQ

Tender support FAQs

Send the tender pack (or a link) and the deadline. We'll confirm fit, risks, timelines, and recommended scope.

The tender pack, any existing policies/case studies, and a short call with the right stakeholders so we can extract the evidence evaluators expect.

Often yes, depending on scope and evidence readiness. We'll confirm feasibility upfront and recommend the simplest scope that still protects compliance and scoring.
