The first thing most of our clients type into google when looking for bid writer is bid writing consultant near me or bid writing consultant in ‘xxxx’ area. It makes sense to find a bid writer that is close to you has an understanding of your local area, particularly when you are bidding for a contract that will be delivered in your local area.
However, there are other factors to consider when engaging a consultant to assist with your next bid or tender. Here at Tsaks Consulting UK, we have bid writers in our team that are located across the UK such as in London, Glasgow, Leeds and Manchester. When you are looking for a bid writer near you, we can often assist with one of our team members that is not only near you, but more importantly, has a comprehensive understanding of your industry and the experience and know-how to help you win.
Tsaks Consulting UK – Providing local support to business across the UK
Our team of bid and tender writers provide bid and tender writing services to businesses across the UK. We have an office and hybrid model which means some of our writers are based in our office in London, whilst others are based in Manchester, Bristol, and other cities and towns across the UK such as Birmingham, Leeds, Glasgow, Sheffield, Bradford, Liverpool and Edinburgh.
What does this mean? It means that when we help you write your tender we do so from an informed position about the local economy, activities of government departments and a comprehensive understanding of what you need to do to win.
However, there is another key factor to consider when hiring a bid writing consultant and which we consider when putting together a team of bid writers to help you win. Industry experience. Even if one of our writers here at Tsaks Consulting UK is located 1km from you, if they don’t have experience in the type of contract you are bidding or your industry, they may not be in the best position to assist!
A locally based, industry experienced tender or bid writer from the Tsaks Consulting UK team is usually best placed to assist you.
Other factors you should consider when looking for a bid writing consultant to help with your next framework, DPS or other application include:
- The level of experience they have in your specific sector. For example, if you are writing a bid for an NHS contract, you need a writer with NHS experience.
- Their track record of actually winning as opposed to submitting tenders. A writer can have five years experience but a poor success rate. Here at Tsaks Consulting UK, we measure our writer’s performance and suitability based on experience as well as actual success rate.
- Responsiveness and ease of communication. If you are going to develop a winning bid, you need a productive team to put it together. Project managing the bid is often half the challenge and it’s important to have clear consistent communication from your consultant in order to achieve that.

What is the hourly rate I should expect to pay for a local bid writer near me to help review my bid?
As a general guide, our hourly rates start from 90 +VAT per hour. A bid review is an excellent way to get advice on improving your bid whilst still writing the entire bid in-house and keeping your external costs down.
Are APMP credentials critical for a bid writer?
No. There are many highly skilled and experienced bid writers who are not APMP certified. Also, the APMP course is a relatively short course. A University degree is generally more beneficial in our view, as well as direct bid and tender writing experience.
