Want us to write this bid?

A Deadline Pack needs 13 to 16 UK working days before the closing day, and a Bid Red-Team 8, so the work is done well and you have time to check it.

Too close to the deadline for us to do this one well: the last day to order even a Bid Red-Team was Tue 20 Oct 2026.

Send us your next tender as soon as it is published. Within one UK working day of having the full pack you get a free bid/no-bid memo, and there is still time to have it written.

Already started and short of time? Ask whether a later order is possible. It depends on what is left to write and on my diary, so the answer may be no.
