Lancashare & Clarity Procurement
Interested in learning about public sector tenders, writing bids or creating more business opportunities for your organisation? Learn from the experts how bid writing is approached and scored, learn when, why and where these opportunities are posted, how you can access them and ensure your organisation hits the key tender criteria, as our members Clarity Procurement deliver this key workshop.
Central government spending reaching SMEs peaked at 27% in 2014/15, before falling to 24% in 2015/16 and then to 22.5% in 2016/17. The House of Commons Public Accounts Committee has argued that government efforts have lost momentum and that a new approach is needed. A new target has been set, with government spending with SMEs to reach 33% by 2022.
Our 'share' members now have access to receive public sector tender alerts direct to their inbox, but we're always adding value to our members and businesses of the county. Join us, and members Clarity Procurement, as we deliver this workshop to help you learn how to find, apply, write and increase your success chances when applying for public sector tenders.
Clarity Procurement supply the tender opportunities to our share platforms and work in line with our own ethics; should our members enquire about a tender opportunity, Clarity Procurement will;
·Signpost you to the tender opportunity in the public domain free of charge
·Assess your organisation’s suitability to apply before submission should you wish to go ahead with them
·Work with you to write & submit the tender opportunity for a fee
·Not write the same tender application for more than one member
This event is provided free of charge to Lancashare members. The non-members fee is £10.00.
Refreshments and networking opportunities are provided.
