Tenders require a detailed analysis of the requirements and a detailed analysis of your competitors .

i have found out inorder to win a tender you must work with the  procurement department  before the issuance of the tender,you must provide them with your detailed company info.,certifications,line of products,technical sheets,and have your company entered in their SRM systems,this helps when they issue a tender they might use your technical specifications on their specification and order sheets,this way you will the best match in product details and all you have to worry about is the prices quoted.

always be ahead of the game,don't wait tell the last minute,always be ahead of your competitors,if your products specification are used in their initial order sheets you are a head of the game and you will be matched on product specifications  and then you can offer your best prices to win the tender.

the key is pre planning and pre sales engagement a head of time.

when we have a new product we plan visits to all segmented departments,provide them with all info. And product specifications and make sure that we registered and  exist in their supplier list.
