Middlesbrough Council spends over £120 million each year buying goods, products and services. We are keen for small and medium sized businesses to become part of the supply chain but understand it can be difficult to know where to start. As a result we are running a second series of free workshops to help you understand the procurement process and prepare your business for successful tendering.

 

This workshop looks at the principles of tenders in local government and how they are evaluated. The workshop assesses why it is important to understand the evaluation process and criteria when preparing bids.

 

Training Objectives

This workshop will help participants to:

 

- Understand tenders and how they are evaluated

- Understand how scoring systems and weightings work

- Understand why tender evaluation matters when preparing your bid

- Prepare their bids more effectively to improve the chance of success

 

Audience

This workshop is targeted at people who are involved in, or responsible for, bidding for contracts.

 

Workshop Outline

An overview of the tender and evaluation process, followed by a discussion and questions. The workshops will include a demonstration of a scoring system and how to understand criteria and weightings. Attendees will receive a handout summarising the main points from the workshop.
