Start winning before the submission deadline

Bid consulting is the core of what we do, but our role often goes far beyond that.

 

We care about the business behind the bid.

 

Tender readiness. Compliance. Policies. Accreditations. Carbon Reduction plans. Content. Processes. Everything. We’ll craft a framework - tailored to your unique needs - that maximises your chances of winning.

Close, lasting partnerships

Winning submissions are built on trust, close collaboration, and rapport, not assumptions.

 

​Many clients work with us for years - nearly a decade in some cases - our support and relationships evolving as their businesses grow.

More than submissions. More than wins.

Securing contracts is about more than submissions. More than just wins. It can create growth, protect jobs, even change the future of the businesses involved.

The contract win that secured a firm's future

When a regional provider faced losing a contract representing almost 70% of its turnover, it turned to Bidology, which helped reshape its solution, strengthen its evidence, and position it as a credible national delivery partner.

 

This would see the contract resecured, the future of the business protected, and foundations for significant future growth created.

A place on a £400m national framework

The resulting close collaboration saw the development of the compelling win strategy, content, and evidence required to demonstrate its exceptional technical, compliance, and social value capabilities.

 

It was a resounding success, giving the client access to the £400m framework, specifically a £40m Surveying Lot.

The way bid support should feel

After 17 years in the corporate bidding world, Emma Smallwood wanted to create the sort of consultancy she’d like to work with - expert, experienced, approachable, and genuinely invested in client outcomes - and so, in 2017, Bidology was born.

 

​Today we are proud to support every kind of organisation from ambitious SMEs to some of the UK’s largest Tier 1 businesses. We are even prouder, though, that most of them choose to work with us in a close, ongoing, long-term capacity.
