Tender pursuit diagnostic

Know where you stand before you commit to a tender.

Send the tender pack and whatever company files might be relevant. Andy reads one against the other and comes back within 24 hours: what's solid, what's missing, what could stop you, and what to sort out first.

How it works
01

Send the pack and your documents

The tender pack, plus whatever company material might bear on it: past bids, policies, certificates, insurance, accounts, CVs, case studies. Whole folders are fine, folders inside folders too.

02

Andy does the work

He reads the whole pack, establishes what it requires of a supplier, works out what your files actually are, and checks one against the other.

03

Get a clean read

Within 24 hours: where the opportunity stands, what's still unresolved, what could stop you, and what to look at first. You make the call.

Find if it fits before you spend two weeks on it.

You don't always find the important problem when you first open the tender.

Andy finds it on day one.

What Andy finds for you.

Not a summary. A point-by-point read of where your material stands, how serious each gap is, and what deserves your attention first.

The read

The overall verdict: clear fit, needs work first, too little to tell, or hard stop.

All-square

Requirements your material genuinely answers, and the document that answers them.

Missing or unknown

What Andy couldn't confirm from what you sent: missing, out of date, or too vague to count.

Structural disqualifier

Where your position appears to conflict with a condition that decides the bid.

What to do first

Unresolved items rarely matter in the order they turn up. Andy ranks them by what they hold up.

  1. Settle the deal-breakers Resolve what could change whether this is worth pursuing at all, before anyone schedules work around it.
  2. Start the outside clocks Some fixes run on someone else's timetable: an insurer, an accountant, a certification body, a government record, the buyer. You can't compress those later, so start them today.
  3. Clear the bottlenecks Then whatever the rest of the work waits on. One unresolved requirement can stall pricing, evidence and drafting at the same time.

The usual shape, not a fixed rule. Andy orders what it actually finds.

Findings point back to where they came from: the tender document and section, and the file in your material.

If Andy doesn't know, it says so.

Missing evidence is not treated as proof of failure.

If something isn't in what you sent, Andy reports that it isn't established, not that you don't have it.

Old evidence is not treated as current evidence.

A case study from four years ago doesn't quietly satisfy a requirement that asks for the last three.

Important findings can be traced back to source.

You can check any of it against the document and the file it came from.

Andy doesn't search for tenders, doesn't write the bid, and doesn't make the decision. It does the reading and the checking that has to happen before the decision is worth making, and leaves the decision to you.

Just drag the folder in.

Not sure which file the certificate is in? Doesn't matter. Send the whole folder it's probably sitting in, folders inside folders are fine. Andy opens the lot and works out what's what.

  • Nothing to tidy up first.
  • Nothing to label or sort.
  • No library to build.

You do have to send it over. Andy won't go digging around your computer on its own.

FAQ

What exactly does Andy do?

Andy reads a tender alongside your company's documents and checks where things stand: which requirements you can already meet, what evidence is missing or out of date, what could stop the bid, and what deserves your attention first.

Does Andy write my bids?

No. Andy works before the writing. It helps you understand whether an opportunity is worth pursuing, and what needs resolving before you commit time to it. The bid itself, and the decision to make it, stay yours.

My company documents are a mess. Is that a problem?

Not at all. Send the folders as they are: past bids, certificates, policies, CVs, spreadsheets, old versions and all. Andy works out what it's looking at. There's nothing to tidy up or sort first.

What if Andy can't find something?

It tells you. The report has a whole category for it: Missing or unknown. Andy is built for uncertainty. Something absent from what you sent doesn't mean you don't have it, so Andy keeps what your documents establish apart from what it couldn't confirm, whether that's missing, out of date or too vague to count, and stays thorough about both.

Why wouldn't I just use ChatGPT?

You can use ChatGPT to help read tender documents. Andy does one particular job: it checks each tender requirement against your company's evidence, surfaces what could block the bid, and gives you a prioritised diagnostic you can trace back to source. It's a specific check, not a general conversation.

How do I check what Andy tells me?

Every finding points back to where it came from: the tender document and section, and the file in your material. So you can check any of it in seconds. Andy is extremely thorough when examining any tender match and will point it out anytime it might be unsure. Andy can still make mistakes but we do our best to make sure he stays on his A game.

When is Andy worth using?

If a tender is simple, you know its formula inside out and it's low-hanging fruit for you, skip Andy. We'd encourage it. Andy earns its keep on the tricky ones: long packs, unfamiliar buyers, requirements you're not sure you meet, the ones that would otherwise eat days of your team's time. Or if you simply want to turn a headache into a quick, clear read, for less than those days would cost. How quickly that adds up depends on the size of your business and what your time is worth.

How much does it cost, and how quickly do I get an answer?
