Ensure you answer every question in the Pre Qualification Questionnaire, and not just the ones you think you can answer well. Also, if your offering doesn’t fit in line with whatever products and services have been requested by the contractor, you are wasting your time with the whole tendering process. This may sound straight forward, but it is a common mistake.Given the current state of the economy, more and more business are looking to tendering as a source of securing contracts. This means it is of course harder to come out on top through the whole tendering process, so make sure you go the extra mile.

Online tendering can seriously trim down the time involved in the tendering process by providing you with much quicker ways of finding out about tenders and responding to them.
