According to OECD, 29% of public procurement is focused on health, and medical bids play a pivotal role in this. Alongside this, in terms of spending area, healthcare procurement accounts for 9% of the GDP. For healthcare companies, this translates to endless opportunities for growth and development. At Healthcare Tenders, we know a thing or two about medical bids, and through this blog, we’ll provide our insights. By the end, you’ll be one step closer to winning a bid!
If your business would benefit from bidding for medical contracts, then our Healthcare Tender portal is here to help.
Unlike other portals, we don’t use CPV codes. Our Opportunity Trackers manually scour hundreds of websites every day. When they find new healthcare contracts, they upload them to Healthcare Tenders using industry-focused keywords. With your subscription, you can find all these opportunities from hundreds of portals, in one place.
What’s more, we will assign you a dedicated Account Manager to manage your subscription. They will be on hand to answer your tendering or portal-related queries. You will also receive a daily email bulletin straight to your inbox. This will contain contracts for healthcare services found that day.
Schedule a free live demo of Healthcare Tenders to see how the portal can help your business.

There’s a real hesitation when it comes to clarification questions. But if the medical bid is published in the public sector, then the buyer has a duty to answer questions. This is due to the focus on transparency when tendering for contracts in the public sector. With this in mind, choose your questions carefully, ensuring that you’re getting the most from the process. As well, ensure that you’ve fully read each document so that you’re not making the buyer repeat themselves. The answer to your question could be on page 50. Ultimately, if done right, the clarification questions can set you up for tender success.
Medical bids are no different when it comes to proofreading. Submitting a bid with multiple errors really doesn’t inspire the buyer with confidence in your abilities. So, to avoid this, review your work with two or three drafts. After this, send the work out to colleagues. If possible, get them to use the tracking function on Word. This helps you keep up to date on where you could improve. Another option is outsourcing to a professional Bid Writer, who will ensure your bid responses are of the highest quality. Our sister company, Hudson Succeed,offer this service through Tender Mentor.
Understanding the importance of relevant case studies/testimonials is a must when you’re writing medical bids. It’s likely that you’re being held to specific standards, so showcasing that you’ve met them before helps ensure bid success. If you don’t meet these specifications, you’ll be marked down in the tender evaluation. Ultimately, a relevant case study helps prove your proficiency to the buyer.
Just before you submit your response, systems can go down, and connections can fail. So, bid management is crucial when you’re allocating time for a tender response. Either way, if you submit your bid after the deadline, your chances of success are dead in the water. So, get a team together! Organise your workforce into a bid writing machine! Set internal deadlines so that everyone is aware of the collective progress of the team. Host progress meetings, allocating tasks in the moment for adaptiveness.
So, we’ve reached the finish line on this blog for medical bids. We’re sure that you’re caught up with the tendering process, and how medical bids work. What if you’re still unsure about responding to a medical tender?
