GOVERNMENT TENDERING
Demystifying the world of government tendering
Foundation
Engineering Business can help you navigate the convoluted world of government tendering by first assessing the suitability of your company to bid. We can determine if you are ‘tender ready’ and if not work out the required systems or documentation you will need to successfully bid.
Process
If you’re ready to bid, we can assist you with locating suitable tenders, preparing a compliant tender and providing adequate responses during the tender process that are required for clarification.
Implementation
Should you be successful in shortlisting (and we hope you are!), or be named a preferred candidate, we can also assist during the negotiation process. We can advise on the technical aspects of the final contract and assist you in any set-up issues required to begin contract work.
SYSTEMS ENGINEERING
Creating solid foundational systems and documentation
Most government work requires a sound knowledge of systems engineering principles. Documentation and processes such as:
- Systems Engineering plans
- Test and evaluation plans
- Engineering management plans
- Risk management plans
- Change management processes
- Risk management processes
Engineering Business can help with all these aspects and provide training on systems engineering principles to give you and your staff the skills to undertake these tasks independently.
QUALITY MANAGEMENT
Ensuring Compliance and Consistency
Government work requires contractors to have accredited Quality Management Systems or an equivalent established system. Engineering Business can guide you through this process, or establish the minimum level of documentation to allow for government compliance in tendering and in the implementation of a contract.
