Bid Reviews

Angus Ward offer a bid review service that can ensure that your bid exactly meets the requirements and will score as high as possible. Sometimes those heavily involved in a bid are not the best to review it, with an expert but external eye needed to provide independent feedback; that is where we come in.

It is important to ensure your writing is clear and error free; your bid needs to create a positive and professional impression. Our reviewing, editing and proofreading services ensure your business, professional and technical documents are of the highest quality. All of our reviewing will provide you with documents with tracked changes and clear comments. We will also provide you with a written report that identifies areas for improvement and further advice. Contact us today for a no obligation consultation and quote.

Our bid review service looks at the following:

  • Structural Editing: an overall look at structure, language and content are consistent with your objectives and tailored to the readers’ expectations.
  • Copy Editing: we cast a careful eye over each sentence, looking at grammar, spelling, punctuation, and consistency.
  • Proofreading: just before you are ready to submit, we check for typographical errors, consistent formatting and well-presented layout.
  • Mock Scoring: we will objectively score the reviewed draft using the commissioner’s evaluation matrix.

  • That there are relevant examples, case studies and supporting documentation

Case Study

We provided bid review services to a community interest company for two healthcare services they were hoping to obtain through re-tendering processes. Each project required two drafts to be reviewed and we provided a comprehensive and exhaustive review for each of them.

On the first review of each project we provided a content and structure review, providing clear advice and guidance as to what was needed to improve each answer. For the second review of each project, we focused on copy editing and proofreading, ensuring that each answer was clearly and professionally presented.

Both bids were successful, ensuring the client kept hold of services that made up the majority of their business.
