The Evaluator's Eye
Know how the panel will read and score your tender. Before it counts.
A review of your bid by someone who has spent 30 years in procurement, 23 of them writing winning tenders. You will see where you are leaving points behind, against the criteria the buyer is actually marking.
The moment this is for
You have done the work. You are just not sure it will land.
Maybe you wrote it yourself. Maybe you ran it through an AI tool and it came back reading well. Now you are close to the deadline, about to submit, and quietly unsure whether it answers what the buyer will actually mark. That gap is where good businesses lose tenders they should win.
Two ways in
One verdict, two moments.
A tender closing this week and a stack of bids that already closed need different reads. We built one for each.
The Evaluator's Eye
Built for a live deadline
You are days from submitting. We read your draft fast, against the criteria and the compliance checklist, and hand back the few fixes that move the most points, with time still to act on them.
Tender Autopsy
A deeper triage of your past bids
You have bids that closed and did not land, and you want to know why. We read across them the way a panel would, and show you what the response most likely gave away against the requirements.
Why the person reading it matters
Most reviews tell you if your writing is tidy. Ours tells you how it will score.
BidBuddy is led by Sue Findlay, who has spent 30 years in procurement and 23 of those years writing tenders alongside it. She has sat on evaluation panels and marked bids from the buyer's side of the table. That is the difference between a proofread and a verdict. We read for what the buyer fears, not just for what you have put on the page.
We show you what an evaluator will see, and you still have room to do something about it.
Honest, on purpose
No one can promise you a win. Anyone who does is guessing.
Most people have no idea how tenders are evaluated, let alone decided. What we will do is make sure you are not handing away points on gaps you could have closed. Around 80% of the businesses we help go on to win. The rest walk away with a stronger bid and a clear view of what a winning response takes.
