Want us to write this bid?

Order by the date shown and there is time to do it well. The dates count back UK working days from the closing day (England and Wales bank holidays left out). Paid in full before work starts; a full refund if you cancel before the kick-off call. No win guarantee and no success fee.

One pack covers one submission. Separate answers for several lots may need a larger pack; you are told before the kick-off call and can have a full refund.

  1. Deadline Pack Lite £695

    We draft the whole response, up to 4,000 words: a selection questionnaire and a few quality questions.

  2. Bid Red-Team £395

    You write it; we score your draft against the marking scheme and redline it, back in 2 working days.

    In 11 days

    Order a Red-Team

Too late for a Deadline Pack Standard: the last day to order it was Fri 23 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 Mon 9 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 Tue 27 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.
