03 / CONTRACTS & PUBLIC PROCUREMENT

Know whether a public contract is worth your time.

Instead of a list of hundreds of tender alerts, get a decision-focused brief that checks a specific notice, mandatory requirements, deadlines, visible competition and missing evidence.

The problem

Public notices are widely available for free. The difficult part is understanding which opportunity your company could realistically pursue and what must be proved before spending weeks on a bid.

Useful for existing SMEs, distributors and manufacturers with relevant products or services, and businesses entering UK or Irish public-sector procurement. For live tender search and selection, the scope must be quoted separately.

Introductory tender fit brief — €199*

  • Review one publicly accessible tender notice and your supplied business capability profile.
  • Identify the original buyer link, notice publication state, relevant visible deadlines and source freshness.
  • List mandatory conditions and evidence gaps clearly, marking what cannot be checked without an authorised tender pack.
  • Record bid/no-bid considerations, amendment questions and practical next steps.
  • Deliver a concise written briefing with links and explicitly unresolved requirements.
Limits are part of the service. No guaranteed win, no claim to be the buyer, no unapproved access to procurement portals and no formal legal advice. Where the complete buyer pack is inaccessible, we flag the limitation and do not declare eligibility.

Common questions

Before you decide.

Can you guarantee an award?

No. The buyer sets the criteria and evaluates bids; the service is independent research to support a commercial decision.

Does the brief include writing or submitting the tender?

No. It covers a defined fit review of one notice. Bid writing, document assembly and submission are separately scoped services if appropriate.

Why pay when public tenders are free to search?

You are paying for human-reviewed structure, evidence mapping, source checking and a clear decision brief—not access to the public notice itself.
