Everything you need to know about how TenderLab works, what it costs and what to expect.
We start by analysing your ITT specification, scoring matrix and KPI framework in detail. Then we conduct structured evidence calls with your registered managers and operational leads to surface the evidence evaluators need — named staff, real scenarios, measurable outcomes. We write every quality question mapped directly to the rubric criteria, internally score each answer against the evaluation methodology, and deliver the complete response formatted for portal upload.
We write tenders for domiciliary care, supported living, residential care, nursing care, live-in care, reablement, children's services, day services, extra care, housing support, shared lives, short breaks, framework agreements and DPS submissions. Every tender we have ever written has been for a health or social care provider.
Pricing depends on the complexity and number of quality questions. A typical full tender response ranges from £1,500 to £4,500. We provide a fixed-price proposal before any work begins — no hourly rates, no surprises. See our pricing page for indicative ranges.
87% across over 200 care sector tenders submitted to councils and NHS trusts nationwide. We track every outcome and publish our results transparently. That said, we never guarantee a win — tender outcomes depend on multiple factors including competing submissions and evaluation panel preferences.
Yes. We regularly work on tight turnarounds. If your deadline is within 5 working days, let us know when you first get in touch and we will prioritise your enquiry. We have delivered complete tender responses in as little as 3 working days when required.
We primarily work with care providers in England but also support organisations in Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. We understand regional variations in how councils write tenders and what they prioritise, and we factor that into our approach.
Absolutely. Our Tender Review & Rescue service is designed for exactly this situation. Send us your draft and we will score it against the evaluation criteria, identify the specific sections losing marks, rewrite the priority answers, and return a before-and-after comparison showing what changed and why.
No. Anyone who guarantees a win is not being honest. Tender outcomes depend on multiple factors beyond even the best written response — the quality of competing submissions, evaluation panel preferences, budget constraints and sometimes internal priorities at the authority. What we guarantee is that we will help you write the best response possible and maximise your score against the evaluation criteria.
A typical full tender response takes 5 to 10 working days depending on the number and complexity of quality questions. We agree the timeline upfront in your proposal and build in time for your review and feedback before submission.
Yes. We format the final response to portal requirements and can upload directly on your behalf, or provide upload-ready documents for you to submit. We also run a final compliance check against the specification to ensure nothing has been missed.
