Pre-Qualification Questionnaires / Standard Questionnaires / Expression of Interest
Traditionally when procuring goods or services, the public sector issues a pre-qualification questionnaire (PQQ) this could also be called a Standard Questionnaire (SQ) . Expression of Interest (EOI) are also commonly used to evaluate suppliers to determine their suitability to deliver the contract. If a company passes these, they would then be shortlisted and through to the next stage of the process, the tender stage, from which a successful bidder would be selected to deliver the work.
Here ay Optimum we ensure this response correct and to a high standard allowing you to be considered for the ITT (invitation to tender) stage, allowing you to showcase your company’s abilities and capacity to fulfil the service, and ultimately win the bid.
At Optimum we are experienced in completing these documents for a wide range of buyers including local authorities, Registered social landlords and consultants.Here at Optimum, we have perfected the art of completing these documents and have a 90% success rate at getting through to the next stage.
ITT
Invitation to Tenders
If you are invited to tender, and once passed the pre-qualification stage, PQQ (if applicable), you are essentially shortlisted to continue to bid and submit why your business should win the contract, often through responding to a formal set of questions, and your price, which could be a one-off project or a Framework Agreements
This will then involve you providing more information to the buyer developing a strong bid submission, giving in depth answers to their questions and evidencing your capabilities.
This is where we stand apart from our competitors. We understand the construction process from Pe Construction to delivery , programming requirement and logistics and are able to incorpate this within our response making it job specific
Evaluators don’t want to read cut copied answers written by writers who don’t understand construction.
