Too late for a Deadline Pack Standard: the last day to order it was Thu 22 Oct 2026.

Pay within one UK working day of the invoice; later payment moves the dates back by the same number of working days.

With a Deadline Pack, the final draft reaches you by Fri 6 Nov 2026, five working days before the closing day, so you can check it, price it and submit it yourself.

The order page sets out the full timeline, what you supply and the terms. I confirm within one UK working day that I can take this tender, and if I cannot, you get a full refund. If I miss a delivery date for a reason in my control, and your inputs arrived on time, you choose a full refund or late delivery.

Want the memo first? Send the full pack by Mon 26 Oct 2026, so the memo comes back before the last day to order. Or order now: I check the word count before the kick-off call, and if the tender needs more than a Deadline Pack Lite covers, you can have a full refund.
