Bid-winning experts gain five spots on government tendering framework

Bid management experts Purpol Marketing are practising what they preach by successfully bidding and winning places on the prestigious G-Cloud 11 National Government Framework.

G-Cloud is the Crown Commercial Services’ framework offering buyers the opportunity to procure ICT services across different lots, and enabling buyers to use specialist consultants.

The G-Cloud framework is an agreement between the government and suppliers who provide cloud-based services.

Buying services through frameworks is faster and cheaper than entering into individual procurement contracts. Buyers and suppliers still need to sign a contract – or ‘call-off contract’ – for each service bought through a framework.

Purpol Marketing are featured under the Support element for nine submitted services:

• Award Entry writing
• Bid Management / Bid writing / Bid Support
• Bid Management Services all sectors
• Bid Management Services – construction sector
• Bid Support services
• Bid writing services
• Strategic Marketing support
• Tender Management Support
• Tender writing

To become a G-Cloud approved supplier, organisations had to prove their expertise. Only consultants that understand the market and technologies with an expert level candidate network are selected.

“We are thrilled to have retained our place on the G-Cloud Framework, for even more services regarding our bid and marketing expertise,” said Purpol Marketing founder rand managing director Denise O’Leary.

“We have been selected for every lot for which we bid. Having previously advised our clients how to successfully secure a place on G-Cloud, we understand how important it is to be featured as well.

“We live and breathe bid writing to help our clients to win and we work across many sectors across the UK so it made sense to make sure we had a prominent presence on the framework as Purpol.

“By winning nine lot places – including how to win awards – we have put ourselves in the position to be selected from when clients are looking to use the ease of the framework to procure bid writing expertise.”
