Council work is steady, well-paid and paid on time. Most small firms never bid for it.

The contracts are out there, but they're scattered across a dozen portals, buried in jargon and due back in a fortnight. Big alert services send you hundreds of irrelevant notices. Bid consultants charge thousands.

We sit in the middle: a short list of contracts you can actually win, and hands-on help writing the bid, at a price that makes sense for a small firm.

How it works

From "what's out there?" to a submitted bid

01

We search everything

All the main UK tender portals and council notices, every week. You don't need to register anywhere.

02

We filter to your firm

Only contracts near your base that fit your services and size. Each one gets an honest "worth bidding?" note.

03

We write the bid with you

We gather your certificates and past jobs, write the answers, and you review. Usually 2–4 hours of your time.

04

You submit and win

You submit under your own name. Win or lose, we get the feedback and make the next bid stronger.

Straight talk, not sales talk

No made-up win rates

Nobody can guarantee a council contract. We'll tell you honestly which ones are worth your time.

We'll tell you not to bid

If a tender isn't right for you, we say so, and you don't pay for a bid you shouldn't make.

Your words, your name

We never invent experience or certificates. You check and submit everything.

Fixed fees

The price is agreed before we start. No hourly surprises.

FAQ

Questions firms ask us

Is a small firm really able to win council contracts?

Yes. Parish and town councils, schools and housing associations regularly buy grounds and tree work in the £10k–£100k range, and many favour local suppliers. The trick is bidding for the right ones, which is what we filter for.

What's included in the free first bid?

Tell us your area and the work you do. Within 2 working days we send you the open contracts that fit, and we prepare the full bid for one of them, free. If nothing suitable is open yet, we keep watching and send the next good one. No card needed, no obligation.

Can't I just search the portals myself?

You can, and it's free. Most firms don't, because it takes hours each week and most results don't fit. We do the searching and filtering so you only look at the few worth bidding for.

How much of my time does a bid take?

Usually 2–4 hours across the whole tender: a short call, sending us your documents, and reviewing the draft before you submit.

Do you guarantee I'll win?

No, and nobody honestly can. Councils score every bid. What we guarantee is a well-organised, clearly written bid that answers exactly what they asked.

Your first bid is on us.

Email us your company name, the area you cover and the work you do. Within 2 working days we'll send you the open contracts that fit your firm and prepare your first bid free. If nothing suitable is open right now, we'll tell you straight and send the next good one as soon as it's published.
