About this Event

Want to win more public sector contracts?


Join us for a practical workshop delivered in collaboration with NEPO’s Supplier Partnership Programme – free training designed to help suppliers strengthen their bids and improve their chances of success.

The session will be led by Executive Compass, a North East-based bid and tender writing consultancy with over 15 years’ experience helping suppliers secure public sector work.


You’ll hear from Stephen Murray, Training Services Manager at Executive Compass, who will walk you through a best-practice approach to producing a competitive written tender submission.

Expect practical, hands-on advice including:

  • How to structure your responses clearly and effectively
  • What evaluators are really looking for
  • Tips to make your answers specific, concise and persuasive


This is a chance to sharpen your bid writing skills, gain insider knowledge, and boost your prospects of winning more work.
