Bid Writing to Win Frameworks

A framework agreement is a type of contract that is commonly used as a multi supplier agreement, establishing a long term relationship to deliver works as an approved supplier for the buyer.

Frameworks

Similar to a tender for a contract, the framework tender is usually a mix of quality and price. The buyer will then review all framework bids and approve a specific number of bidders to be awarded a place on the framework.

Then, when the buyer has a requirement or specific project, they will usually run a mini competition or call off, which reduces the timescales and complexity of awarding specific works.

Alternatively, some frameworks allow a direct award, so no mini competition or call offs. Work could be awarded to a bidder based on a geographical lot which has already been agreed as part of the framework agreement. Some frameworks also award based on performance, which will be measured throughout the partnership.

How do I get on public sector frameworks?

Get in contact

You should approach a framework as any other tender or contract opportunity. You should invest time and resources to fully understand it, including what the buyer wants and expects, appreciate your competitors’ strengths and weaknesses, and how you can seek competitive advantage.

The buyer will likely want to see that you have the experience and ability to meet the requirements of the framework. They may ask for references from previous completed works, financial information and information about your company and any accreditations you may hold.

We also advise to consider what compliance elements may be required so that you can plan for them. For example; what training will your staff need? Does the business need additional certifications? What experience and evidence is relevant and can you start planning for it, prior to the tender being advertised. Planning is key!
