Stop searching. Start winning.
We monitor 23 sources, filter for care sector fit, and assess win probability on every opportunity. You get a shortlist of tenders you can actually win, not 500 alerts you'll never read.
You’re drowning in alerts and still missing deadlines
The opportunities are out there. Find a Tender, Contracts Finder, NHS portals, council websites, framework notice boards, sector newsletters. There’s no shortage of places to look.
The problem isn’t finding tenders. It’s three things.
You’re spending 4–5 hours a week searching. Monday: scroll through Find a Tender. Tuesday: check council portals. Wednesday: review what you found. Thursday: something new appears. Friday: realise you missed one that closed yesterday.
You’re bidding on everything that looks relevant. Title mentions domiciliary care? Bid. Supported living in your region? Bid. Framework opening? Bid. No qualification. No filtering. Just hope.
You’re winning 1 in 6 instead of 2 in 3. Because you’re spreading effort across tenders you were never going to win. The incumbent had a 10-year relationship. The turnover threshold was twice your revenue. The deadline was 9 days for a 20-question ITT. You’d have known all this in 15 minutes if someone had checked.
What we do: curation, not alerts
Generic tender alerts are a search function. They find tenders matching keywords. That’s the easy part.
We do the hard part: qualification.
Every opportunity we flag has been reviewed against your specific profile. Here’s what we check on each one before it reaches you:
Can you bid? Financial standing, insurance levels, accreditations, mandatory experience thresholds. If there’s a pass/fail item you can’t meet, we tell you before you waste a week.
Can you win? Scoring methodology, incumbent position, competition level, your evidence against the evaluation criteria. If the scoring weights NHS acute experience at 30% and you’ve never worked in acute, a compliant bid is probably not a winning bid.
Can you deliver? Geography, capacity, mobilisation timeline, TUPE considerations. Winning a contract you can’t deliver is worse than losing one.
Is it worth it? Contract value against bid effort required. A £50K spot purchase needing 40 hours of writing isn’t worth it. A £400K framework call-off needing 20 hours is.
Is the timing right? Three simultaneous bids with one bid writer means three weak submissions instead of one strong one. We look at your bid calendar, not just the tender deadline.
Our detailed guide on the bid/no-bid decision framework covers the full criteria we apply.
Where we look
We monitor care sector procurement across 23 sources, including:
- Find a Tender (CPV codes 85000000–85320000 and related)
- Contracts Finder (below-threshold opportunities, SME-friendly)
- NHS Supply Chain and ICB portals
- Council procurement portals (region-specific, checked weekly)
- Framework notice boards (NEPO, ESPO, CCS, YPO, regional frameworks)
- Prior Information Notices (early warning of upcoming tenders, 3–6 months ahead)
- Award notices (who’s winning what, at what price, in your area)
Award tracking matters. It tells you who your competition is, what they’re charging, and where gaps are opening up.
What you get every week
Every week you receive:
- 6–8 relevant opportunities matched to your service type, geography, and capacity
- Bid/no-bid assessment on each one with specific reasoning
- Risk flags covering compliance gaps, timeline concerns, and evidence readiness
- Deadline tracker showing what’s live, what’s closing, and what’s coming
- Framework alerts for upcoming openings and DPS refreshes
Your weekly time commitment: 10–15 minutes reading the shortlist. Compare that to the 4–5 hours you’re currently spending searching and still missing things.
A disciplined pipeline, properly qualified, produces fewer bids and better win rates. One client reduced their bid volume by 40% and doubled their win rate in 12 months. The cost isn’t just the wasted hours on bad bids — it’s the opportunity cost of strong bids you couldn’t pursue because your resource was absorbed elsewhere.
Sectors where we have particular depth
Our sourcing covers the full range of public sector health and social care procurement. We track supported living and domiciliary care commissioning (where framework refreshes and spot purchasing create different pipeline dynamics), patient transport (active NHS procurement, concentrated buyer set), and children’s services (where local authority procurement is less visible but no less competitive).
We also track framework activity across NEPO, ESPO, and regional care frameworks — so you see upcoming openings before the notice goes live.
What we need from you to get started
- Your service scope and regions
- Any target buyers or frameworks you already know
- Evidence library (policies, KPIs, case studies) or a clear picture of what exists today
- Previous bid history if available — win rates and feedback inform how we qualify future opportunities
