Bid Skills Workshop

A deeper dive with practical work along examples of a typical public sector procurement.

A deeper dive into public sector procurement processes for general goods and services, with practical examples of a typical public sector procurement. We’ll look at how to work through the stages of a public procurement, including the standard selection questionnaire and draft responses on quality questions, social value, carbon redcuction and maximise chances of success.

In this interactive workshop we’ll draft answers to some sample quality and social value questions and score them according to the answers we write. We’ll discuss our scores based on the specification and evaluation criteria and discuss any improvements we could make.

We’ll go through some live examples of asnwers that have scored top marks and those that have missed out. As the new regulations will be in force we’ll also take a look at how this has changed things for bidders and how to increase your knowledge of the new regulations ahead of bids and tenders.
