Establish fit and package
We check deadline, draft state, approximate scope and kind of challenge before confidential tender material is requested.
Win work
Independent challenge before an important submission goes in.
When a tender is nearly finished, familiarity can make weaknesses harder to see. Tender Review gives a substantially complete response a fresh reading against the tender material you provide, with remaining issues organised around what appears to matter most before submission.
Packages
Choose the depth the submission needs.
Quick Review
£295
A tightly bounded final challenge where the draft is substantially complete and the review can focus on the most material issues.
Standard Review
£495
A fuller review across the agreed tender material, response quality, evidence, ambiguity, gaps and priority.
Extended Review
From £795
For larger or more complex submissions where volume, structure or evaluation requirements materially increase the work.
Firm quote before work starts.
The package name does not override the scope. The written quote confirms which material is included, timing, handover, price and what would require a change. Tight deadlines require a capacity check rather than an automatic website surcharge.

The moment
This is most useful when the draft already exists.
You still have time to make your own corrections, the tender documents and supporting evidence are available, and you want a challenge of the response rather than somebody to take over the bid.
If the real need is to write the submission from scratch, obtain legal advice or hand over the final procurement decision, this is not the right service.
Submission lens
A polished answer can still miss the point.
This illustrative excerpt shows the kinds of questions a review brings into focus. It is not a customer document and it is not a scoring tool.
Requirement: Explain how you will maintain service quality during mobilisation.
“We are experienced and provide a robust, high-quality service with a dedicated team and proven processes.”
Question fit
The sentence sounds capable, but it never answers the requirement shown above. A reviewer would flag the gap between polish and relevance.
Does this answer what was actually asked?What we examine
Did the response answer what was actually asked?
A polished answer can still miss the question. The review checks the relationship between material requirements or evaluation criteria and the response supplied.
Can the important claims carry their own weight?
Where a statement appears to need stronger evidence, qualification or correction, that should be visible before the bid is submitted rather than discovered afterwards.
What may be missing or ambiguous?
The review surfaces material gaps, inconsistencies and avoidable uncertainty at the strength the available material supports.
What deserves the remaining time?
Not every weakness matters equally. Findings are prioritised so final editing effort can be directed deliberately rather than spent polishing everything again.
The boundary
What comes back — and what does not.
You receive
- a structured view of material requirements or evaluation points against the submission, in the format appropriate to the agreed review;
- findings on evidence, claims, question fit, material gaps and ambiguity;
- a prioritised list of corrections, questions or points requiring your decision;
- a concise handover intended to help you make the final changes and submission decision.
Exact document format and scope are agreed before work begins rather than implied by this website.
Tender Review does not
- guarantee a score, shortlist, contract or win;
- invent evidence or make unsupported claims stronger by wording alone;
- provide legal advice or procurement representation;
- submit through the procurement portal for you;
- quietly become unlimited rewriting or full bid authorship.
How it works
Fit first. Files later.
Agree the boundary and price
The documents, timing, expected handover, material handling and firm written price are made clear before the engagement begins.
Review
The agreed material is challenged against the scope, with findings recorded at the strength the evidence supports.
Handover
You receive the agreed review and remain responsible for the final content, judgement and submission.
