Are you a business owner looking to expand your reach, diversify your revenue streams and secure stable contracts?
Led by Vicky Poole, this webinar is designed to demystify two powerful avenues for growth: integrating into existing supply chains and successfully bidding for public contracts.
In today's dynamic market, collaborating and engaging with the public sector can be hugely beneficial for businesses of all sizes.
We explore the tangible benefits of becoming a valuable link in a supply chain and provide practical insights into the often-complex world of government procurement.
Advantages of joining supply chains: How joining supply chains can increase sales, lower running costs, provide access to new markets and boost your business's credibility and stability.
Navigating public procurement: Gain a clear understanding of the public contracting environment, including common types of contracts, where to find opportunities and the essential steps involved in the bidding process.
Essential requirements for successful public bids: Learn about the crucial documents, certifications and compliance standards typically required to bid for public contracts in the UK.
A former corporate business development director with 15 years of experience selling into the public sector, Vicky set up her company Tender Response in 2023.
Her experience encompasses tender responses (obviously), framework applications, grants, compliance reporting for crown commercial services, social value and sustainability.
Vicky is an elected member to a Unitary Council and has procurement within her portfolio, enabling her to see public sector procurement from both buyer and supplier perspectives.
