Why tender management becomes difficult
Tender alerts are only the beginning.
Finding an opportunity is one small part of managing a tender. The real pressure begins when your team must understand the requirements, attend briefings, coordinate contributors, meet internal deadlines, submit correctly and follow the tender long after closing day.
