Response review

Are you confident that your bid’s response is compelling, consistent, compliant and customer-focused? Our response reviews will provide a cost-effective, fine-tuning process for your response before submission.


If you would like a second pair of eyes to review, fine-tune and improve your response before you submit it, a response review could be the optimal solution.

A response review will incorporate a detailed review of your response, alongside scrutiny of the tender's specification, mark scheme and any other relevant tender documents that you send us.

Acting as a ‘critical friend’, we will provide you with written advice of where you can make improvements to your response’s clarity, consistency, customer focus, quality and compliance with the mark scheme – all factors which will achieve higher marks at evaluation.

Our response reviews are undertaken by our bid consultants who have a track record of managing and writing winning bids. This ensures that the rigour applied within each response review meets the quality standards required of a winning bid.

Within a response review, we will identify areas where you could make changes that will achieve higher marks for your bid at evaluation.

"The first time we engaged Gimlet Associates, they responded at short notice when we contacted them to review our bid for Grounds Maintenance services before we submitted it. They exceeded our expectations and helped us to significantly improve our responses and format our bid within the limited time we had left before submission. The buyer said our bid was “the best bid we have ever seen”! Nigel and Kate have provided excellent value for money on both occasions we've used their services. They'll be our first point of call in future bids, and we would not hesitate to recommend them to any business that’s looking for help with their bids." Operations Manager, Task-it Ltd
