Every answer where the evaluator looks for it.
Tender documents win or lose on how closely they follow the buyer’s own structure. We write, design and assemble yours, from method statements to pricing schedules.
What they are
Everything the buyer asks you to return with a bid: the completed forms, the written answers to the quality questions, the pricing schedule, and the certificates and declarations that prove you are eligible. A tender pack can run to a dozen files, each with its own rules on length, format and naming.
We write the answers from your experience, design the set in your brand and check it against the returnables list before you submit. The profile at the front of a bid has its own page, tender company profiles; the one we wrote for Mrala Enterprise shows the standard.
The set
Buyers name them differently in each country. These appear in most tenders, public and private.
| Document | What it does | What we do |
|---|---|---|
| Method statement | How you will deliver the work against the specification | Written from your process, with diagrams where they help |
| Quality responses | Scored answers, each within its word or page limit | Written to the scoring guide, one answer per criterion |
| Pricing schedule | Your rates and totals in the buyer’s template | Completed in their file, arithmetic checked |
| Case studies and references | Similar contracts with results and a contactable client | Written as one-page project sheets |
| CVs and organogram | The team who will do the work and how they report | Laid out in one format from your details |
| Policies and certificates | Health and safety, environmental and equality policies; insurance, tax and registration | Formatted and listed; policies written from your facts where none exists |
How it runs
Send the invitation to tender the day it lands. The closing date decides everything else.
The specification, the scoring guide and the returnables list, then we agree who writes what.
Projects, figures, CVs and certificates, collected against a checklist, with gaps flagged early.
Each one answers the question asked, in the buyer’s order, in their words, within their limits.
Laid out in your brand, read against the criteria once more and supplied the way the portal asks.
Finding tenders
In the UK, public contracts above the thresholds appear on Find a Tender, and lower-value ones on Contracts Finder. South African government tenders are published on the eTender Publication Portal, and bidders register on the Central Supplier Database first. US federal opportunities are listed on SAM.gov; our capability statement page covers those.
Private-sector tenders arrive by invitation. The documents are much the same; the deadline is usually shorter.

Questions
Question not here? Send it to us and we will answer it directly.
Ask a questionEmail hello@redfoxbranding.com or send the tender pack through the project form, with the closing date in the first line. We read the pack and reply with a fixed quote that lists each document we will write or design. If the deadline is too tight to do the job properly, we say so straight away rather than take it on.
Yes. Our tender writing covers the quality responses, method statements, case studies and pricing narrative, written from interviews with your team and the records you hold. Design then puts the set in your brand. Book either on its own, though bids that score well usually need both: clear answers that are easy to mark.
We check the set against the returnables list and the formatting rules; you check the facts, the prices and the signatures. Your director signs the declarations and your accountant confirms the figures. We never submit on your behalf, but we prepare the files in the names, sizes and formats the portal expects.
The number of scored questions, how much of the evidence already exists in a usable form, and how many documents need design rather than formatting. A pricing schedule in the buyer’s spreadsheet takes less time than six method statements written from scratch. Every item is priced separately, so you can keep any of them in-house.
Our offices in Liverpool, Sandton and Pennsylvania see tenders from all three countries, so we know what a UK framework, a South African municipality and a US agency each expect to find. One set of documents, written once, can be adapted for each.
Send the invitation to tender, the returnables list and the closing date, and tell us which documents you already have. We reply with a fixed quote in pounds, rand or dollars, each document priced on its own. Once you agree it, we begin with the tender documents that score the most.
