Fixed fees. Clear ROI. No surprises.

Transparency

Why we publish our prices

Most tender writing consultancies won't share pricing until you're on a call. We publish ours because you should be able to compare and plan your budget upfront.

Final quotes adjust based on four factors: word count and number of quality questions, timeline and deadline pressure, evidence readiness (policies, KPIs, case studies already in place vs. needing creation), and the number of review rounds required.

Before any drafting starts, we agree responsibilities, review stages, and delivery dates — so there are no surprises.

Benchmarks

What drives the cost

  • The tender pack: word counts, complexity, and pass/fail requirements
  • Timeline and review cycles (standard vs. urgent turnaround)
  • Evidence readiness (policies, KPIs, case studies already in place vs. needing creation)

Our guarantee

What we guarantee on every submission

We don't guarantee wins — competition varies and incumbents have advantages. We guarantee the submission itself: zero compliance failures, criteria-mapped responses, and evidence structured for scoring. We'll tell you honestly if a tender isn't winnable before we start.

  • Zero compliance failures — every pass/fail requirement checked and met
  • Responses mapped to evaluation criteria and weightings
  • Evidence structured for scoring, not just listed
  • Submission-ready: formatting, portal rules, and deadline-safe delivery

Package fit

Proof matched to how clients buy

Edited client summaries mapped to the three main buying patterns: standalone tender writing, ongoing system support, and the full partnership.

Needed honest guidance on what a strong bid should look like without committing to ongoing support. The per-tender route gave them a clear scope, a simpler process, and a submission they could move forward with confidently.

Care with Patience Ltd

Tender Writing support

Had repeat opportunities coming through and wanted reusable material, not a fresh scramble every time. The bundled approach created better structure across multiple submissions and made future bids easier to manage.

Higher Heights Care Ltd

System Foundation support

Wanted support that improved not just one submission but the way future bids were handled too. The retainer created a stronger process, better evidence control, and more reusable material for repeat opportunities.

Savvy Loft Ltd

Full System partnership

Fit

Is this the right fit?

A quick check before you get in touch.

Good fit if…

  • You have a live tender (or a framework/DPS application) and a clear deadline — project-based or ongoing support both work
  • You want responses written to the evaluation criteria, not generic capability statements
  • You can give access to the right people for evidence and approvals
  • You want a clear scope and review cycle, not a last-minute scramble
  • You're bidding regularly and want intelligence and evidence infrastructure in place before the deadline arrives

Not a fit if…

  • You can't share the tender pack/portal link or submission rules
  • You want generic copy that isn't tied to the buyer's questions
  • There's no time for any approvals or review before submission
  • You need us to guess delivery details with no input from your team

Not sure? Send the pack and the deadline and we'll tell you quickly what's realistic.

To quote quickly

What we need from you

Send what you have. We'll tell you what's missing and what can realistically be created in time.

  • Tender pack or portal link (plus any attachments)
  • Submission deadline and clarification window (if applicable)
  • Buyer questions, word counts, and scoring criteria/weightings
  • Any existing evidence: case studies, policies, certificates, KPIs/metrics
  • Who can approve final wording and attachments (and when they're available)
  • Whether you want end-to-end writing or review-only

If you only have the portal link and the deadline, that's enough to start.

FAQ

Pricing FAQs

Send the tender pack (or portal link) and deadline. We'll review scope, word counts, submission rules, and evidence readiness, then come back with a fixed scope and a clear quote.

No. Tender Writing is fully standalone at £2,500 per tender. But providers with a System Foundation subscription get better results because their evidence is already structured and their pipeline is qualified. Most clients who start with standalone writing move to System Foundation within 6 months.

Tender Writing is project-based — you pay per tender, no commitment. System Foundation and Full System are monthly subscriptions that provide continuous support between tenders: intelligence, evidence maintenance, and strategic guidance.

Unused writing capacity rolls over for 3 months. You're paying for the complete system — intelligence, evidence, writing, and review — not just the writing volume.

Typically, yes for fixed-fee Tender Writing. For System Foundation and Full System subscriptions, we invoice monthly. We'll confirm payment milestones in writing before starting.

Unless stated otherwise, prices are quoted excluding VAT. We'll confirm VAT treatment on your quote.

It depends on the package and the timeline. We agree the review rounds upfront so you know exactly what's included.

Often yes, depending on scope and evidence readiness. Urgent turnarounds (under 7 days) may carry a surcharge to cover weekend or evening work. We'll confirm feasibility and any additional cost before starting.

If the tender pack changes, word counts shift, or new requirements appear, we'll flag it immediately and agree any change before we continue.

On single-winner opportunities, we won't support two direct competitors on the same bid. We'll confirm the exact terms when we review the opportunity.

We'll identify gaps early and help you create what's missing — case studies, policy summaries, KPI data. If gaps are too large to fill in time, we'll tell you honestly rather than submit a weak bid.

No. Our fee is fixed regardless of outcome. You keep 100% of the contract value. We think that's fairer and removes any incentive to oversell your capability.

If the buyer cancels the opportunity, you only pay for work completed to that point. We'll provide a clear breakdown of what was delivered.

Which level of support is right for you?

Send the pack and deadline. We'll confirm if it's winnable, which option fits, and what it costs. No obligation. Just expert assessment.
