Thornton & Lowe provides comprehensive bid consultancy services to help UK businesses navigate the complex world of PQQs (Pre-Qualification Questionnaires) and the wider tender process. Our experienced team of bid writers and consultants offer expert guidance and support throughout the entire PQQ journey.
A PQQ is often the first stage of the bidding process, used by buyers to assess the suitability and capability of potential suppliers before inviting them to submit a full tender. It typically covers areas such as financial stability, technical ability, quality standards, environmental policies, social value, and relevant experience.
When completing a PQQ, suppliers will be asked to provide information on various aspects of their business, including:
- Company details and structure
- Financial information and insurance details
- Health and safety policies and procedures
- Quality assurance and environmental management systems
- Relevant experience and references
- Capacity and resources to deliver the contract
- Policies on equality, diversity, and modern slavery
Preparing a successful PQQ response requires careful planning, attention to detail, and a thorough understanding of the buyer's requirements. Thornton & Lowe can assist with all aspects of PQQ preparation, including:
- Identifying and understanding the key areas of a PQQ
- Developing a structured approach to PQQ completion
- Writing compliant and persuasive responses that demonstrate your company's strengths
- Ensuring compliance with the buyer's specifications and evaluation criteria
- Reviewing and refining your PQQ submission to maximise your chances of success
In addition to PQQ support, Thornton & Lowe offers a range of bid writing services to help businesses win more public sector contracts. Our team can assist with tender monitoring, bid management, writing and coordinating tender submissions, and providing ongoing support and guidance throughout the procurement process.
With our expertise and proven track record, Thornton & Lowe is well-positioned to help your business succeed in the competitive world of public sector tendering.
