Getting into tendering can be very daunting and knowing when and where to start is vital. We would never recommend diving into tendering without serious thought and consideration. You must make sure that you are completely bid-ready before you go any further.

Once you are happy that you’re ready to tender, the first question you’ll probably ask is ‘How do I find new contracts?’
Find A Tender
A good place to start is the free government resource Find a Tender. This step-by-step guide will help you to get the most out of this free resource.
Step 1 – Search for www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/
Step 2 – Fill out the search terms
- Use a search term that is most relevant to your company.
Step 3 – Narrow your results
- Your results are likely to be extremely exhaustive. You can therefore narrow them down.
- Using the boxes on the left-hand side, make sure to select only ‘Open’ contracts.
- You can also narrow results by Sector, Location, Value, Industry, and Date. Make sure to select these options as carefully as possible, to ensure you find the most suitable contracts.
- Once happy, click, ‘Update results’.
