The Ultimate Tender Response Solution
Thornton & Lowe, the leading UK-based bid and tender writing service provider, is excited to announce the release of our updated Tender Library. This significant update to our tender management software incorporates cutting-edge AI technology to revolutionise the way businesses search, filter, and manage their bid content, while seamlessly integrating our powerful Tender Pipeline tool for tender search, alerts, and competitor analysis.
AI-Powered Vector Search and Filtering
One of the key features of Tender Library is the integration of AI-powered search, filtering, and vector search. By generating vector representations of the library data, our system enables advanced semantic searches, allowing users to find relevant content based on meaning. This ensures that users can quickly access the most pertinent information, even when exact matches are unavailable.
Our state-of-the-art vector search technology finds and ranks documents based on the closeness of their vector representations to a query, guaranteeing that users can efficiently locate the most relevant content, saving valuable time and effort.

What Tender Library’s AI Bid Writing Software Doesn’t Do
Tender Library’s AI tools are designed to support your bid writing process, not replace your expertise. Think of it as a sophisticated writing assistant – like the spell-check in Microsoft Word – that helps generate ideas and draft content. However, there are certain things you should never rely on AI to do when responding to tenders:
- Don’t Just Copy and Paste: Avoid the temptation to simply cut and paste responses generated by AI (for example, directly from ChatGPT). AI should spark ideas, not serve as your final answer.
- Don’t Let AI Replace Your Expertise: Your knowledge and understanding of the tender requirements and your industry’s nuances are irreplaceable. Use AI to challenge your thinking and get a fresh perspective, but ensure your responses reflect your own knowledge and experience.
- Don’t Overlook the Tender’s Specifics: AI-generated content might not fully address all the unique requirements of a tender. Always review and tailor your bid to ensure it meets every criterion.
- Don’t Assume AI Can Handle Compliance: Critical compliance and regulatory details should be managed by you. Use AI to enhance your draft, as a starting point even but verify that all mandatory conditions are clearly addressed.
- Don’t Skip the Human Touch: While AI can help streamline your bid and tender writing process, it’s your insights, tone, and personal touch that truly make a bid stand out. Revise and personalise AI-generated content to maintain authenticity.
Getting the Most from AI in Bid & Tender Writing
Let the AI suggest structures, ideas, and content angles. Then build on these ideas with your own expertise. Use the software to quickly locate previous responses, merge content, and refine your bids. This will help you save time while maintaining quality.
Use AI-generated bid writing to challenge and improve your own writing, not to replace it! Your genuine insights and customised approach are what truly win tenders. It's got be highly practical - specific and real to be consistently successful! AI loves to generalise and summarise - so please be conscious of this.
