The Go-2-Tender programme is Ireland’s most successful and comprehensive tender training programme. We are running a workshop in Cork on the Tuesday 17th September and Tuesday 24th September. Bid Management Services and Core Consulting will be delivering the workshop and there will be equal emphasis on tendering in ROI and NI.
The course consists of a 2 day in classroom programme which covers many aspects of public procurement ranging from making the bid/no bid decision, your approach to the market and the construction of a typical document. Further to this a free half a day mentoring session is attached to this programme which can focus on any procurement issue you are interested in and the option exists to apply for an additional up to 3 days of mentoring which is free of charge.
Background of Go-2-Tender
This programme has been developed and run for InterTradeIreland by Bid Management Services and is specifically targeted to provide companies with the skills to successfully tender for Public Sector contracts. Participants have been incredibly successful following the programme and have won €50m of business following on from their participation on the course in recent times. For example last year’s attendees on the programme have secured in excess of €10m of contracts since participating in the Go2Tender programme.
It works by providing participants with two days of in class training followed by free mentoring from our expert tender specialists.
