Bidding & Tendering Advisory

Supporting bid & tender applications

Supporting suppliers to respond to complex bid and tender applications

ArcBlue leverages extensive procurement and supply chain knowledge to support suppliers respond to complex bids. Our expert consultants have the unique perspective of having worked in tender evaluation, and some have been involved in creating the policies and strategies relating to current social procurement policy.

Our experts also have extensive experience working as tenderers on complex major projects such as infrastructure and renewables projects and can advise suppliers on how best to approach a tender response.

We are able to help you to interpret tender requirements and translate what the tenderer is looking for. We can advise suppliers on complex tendering processes, ensuring compliance and probity requirements are met.

We specialise in assisting suppliers in two key ways:

Providing specialist knowledge relating to Social Procurement criteria when bidding for government work
Providing specialist knowledge relating to industry or category-related criteria for major projects.
