Can I win this?

Competition

Usually high: a median of 6 bids per contract for care contracts in this region (from 122 awards in the last 12 months).

Dynamic purchasing system

Suppliers join a list the buyer can call on. You can usually apply at any time while it is open, and work is awarded later through smaller competitions between members.

How to bid

  1. Read the full notice on Find a Tender, including any tender documents it links to.
