    • Free Public Sector Bid Response Assessments

      Our consultants use in-house technology to quality check, score and suggest improvements to help improve your quality scoring by up to 140%.

    What is Bid Bot?

    We build and consult on bidding technology to help customers learn, understand, build and analyse their public sector responses. We have in-house bid experts who have built the first platform to quality check, score and suggest improvements on your public sector bid responses, and we will take you through the journey from understanding your bidding data, to using the platform yourself.

    • Consultancy – Our in-house experts currently provide free assessments and consultancy services across your past and live responses.

    • Platform – The first quality checking, scoring and improvement suggester aligned to your customer’s marking scheme, to use role personas each equipped with a ruling based system that has proven to help improve public sector bids.

    How does Bid Bot work its magic?

    We have created a platform that uses software, AI and data analysis coupled with years of analysing word by word what goes into a bid response to create a ruling-based system that sits between the user interface and large language models.

    • The workflow – flows through the requirements, personas, assessment criteria, and ingredients and is mapped against the marking scheme, to either auto-generate your response or analyse, provide a score against the marking scheme and provides suggestions based off the individual personas.

    • Ruling-based system– The closest review you will have to the real buyer reviewers. Our analysis is done through role personas aligned to your requirements and armed with a bid expert ruling-based system, to analyse your own readymade drafts, boilerplate content or from our generator to receive an overall bid quality score and individual questions score all analysed against your uploaded marking scheme.

    Why use BID BOT?

    Our in-house expert Alex Castle, since creating his bid analysis theories has won, without any pre-engagement with customers approximately 11 frameworks and 10 mini-competition bids in four years of leading opportunities. Through initially using the key ingredients as the template of all his storyboards, he then started to use the same ingredients to analyse bids word by word. He now uses the ruling-based system in combination with AI to rapidly review work and provide suggestions.

    • Sectors we have worked with – proven track record across securing national and local frameworks, as well as successful ITT (Invitation to Tender) bids. Clients have included central government bodies, educational institutions, healthcare organisations, housing authorities, and local councils.

    • Industries we have won in – a background of winning bids across civil and structural engineering, construction, audio-visual and IT demonstrates winning bids from breaking ground, through to constructing buildings and developing technology the cloud.

    • The education our experience brings – We will bridge the bid knowledge gap with people new to bids and subject matter experts with no bidding experience by sending reports with the scores and suggestion of how to improve their responses specific to their role persona.

    Our experience with assessments

    From the assessments we have done, below are some stand-out issues identified.

    Painting the picture

    We had seen a response averaging 6/10 that was being used for similar ITT’s over and over again with the same result. We reviewed the response and noticed they were not talking enough about the CRM tooling and the people involved in the process. We changed this and the response started averaging 8/10 straight away.

    Don’t be shy, let your people shine

    0.4%

    That is right, out of 750 words, 3 words were about people. If a reviewer is looking at your response they will not have a clue as to who is doing what; very important!

    5-10%

    Is about right to show off your people. So in a 500 word response you should be dedicating 25-50 words to your people to paint the picture of who is involved, their relevant experience, accreditations and value add they will bring.

    Missed content, bids are fast paced.

    Our analysis picked up missing solution and service text that the customer directly mentioned in feedback, which could of resulted in a higher scoring. Bids are fast paced but with our assessments, we can analyse the response from a different perspective and pick up content that may of been missed.

    Core Benefits

    50% time saved

    Spend less time wondering if the content is good enough and working out how much of your boilerplate content from a previous bid needs changing. We can review the customer requirements for you and separate the relevant elements under each response, and analyse your first draft through our quality checking, scoring and suggestion analysis; alternatively, you can provide this to us. Our in-house bid expert will then provide feedback through the report generated and will share the feedback on a call to advise you on how to get to the next draft stage. 

    140% quality improvement

    We understand that SME’s average from 65-75% on bid submissions. With our built-in quality checking and suggestion tool, we will gather actionable data to help improve your bid responses to be scoring 80-85+%. Upon creating the key ingredients theory, our in-house expert went from averaging 70% to 85%+ rapidly once implemented; imagine the outcome if he used it now with the ingredients aligned to role personas who are all involved in the process whether writing or reviewing. 

    200% improvement of subject matter experts quality output

    The first tool to help subject matter experts bridge the gap between their knowledge and what scores within a bid response. Using our services and the platform internally, it will allow you to retain knowledge in-house and learn from the data, in opposed to having a bid consultancy complete a bid but you have no understanding as to why they won or lost. The benefits are there for all! It will help your sales and bid lead tidy up their draft content faster, and less chasing of scoreable and compliant content. We have been there chasing far-reaching individuals for just a few words, with our services, you will be able to pre-empt it and send them the report for them to improve, for example, the accreditation or standard you are hunting down.

    3x more bid wins

    Our in-house expert has made a career of beating incumbents and winning bids he should not of due to looking at bids from the bid analysis he has created which has all been implemented into Bid Bot’s platform. This has seen him out preforming his target and peers by 2/3 times through using bid analysis on the words within responses. Countless bids whereby the quality has been that high, has won him the work, and this is down to the bid analysis theories he has created as well as being a skilled bid writer.
