Tender Writing Tips

An established, family-owned Australian amusement and event management company has secured a multi-year contract to continue planning and delivering a major community event for a council within the Greater Sydney region.

The client brought more than six decades of industry experience, a large mobile amusement fleet and extensive experience delivering recurring public events and major festivals.

Winning a tender as the incumbent provider can create a different challenge from competing for a completely new contract.

An established hospitality operator approached Bidsmith when a New South Wales local council put the licence for one of its venues back to open tender.

Some tenders are competitive because of price.

Others are competitive because of visibility.

This government hospitality tender sat firmly in the second category. The contract involved securing a long-term licence to operate hospitality venues within major government buildings. These venues serve large workforces and sit at the centre of daily government operations.

A remarkable story of ambition, vision, and success recently unfolded in the picturesque landscapes of regional Western Australia. A highly motivated couple, armed with a clear vision but lacking direct hospitality experience, embarked on an audacious journey. Their dream? To operate a hospitality venue that served as a social hub and supported their local community.

A long-standing client recently asked us to help them respond to a private sector tender. They needed to respond to a waste management tender for a very large property portfolio owner. Our professional bid writers had previously helped deliver many winning bids for them, so we were the obvious choice to help with this tender response.
