Bid Writing Services & Bid Writing Training

Bid Writing

Carrley® Business provides expert bid writing services. 

Each year we win millions of £’s of funding for our clients by writing the highest scoring bids.

We have been writing winning client bids since 2006 through our in-house, highly experienced team of bid writers. They have worked in past senior positions in both the public and private sectors in sales and buying roles. Our Bid Team has many years’ successful experience of winning bids. It has worked in sectors as diverse as civil engineering, construction, defence, digital, education, and professional services.

Our Bid Team prepares compelling bids. These clearly position Unique Selling Propositions (USP’s) and competitive advantage.  They also take into account latest best practice and our Bid Writers are members of the Association of Proposal Management Professionals.

You can, therefore, be assured that the work we produce for you will be of the very highest quality. It will stand out from that of competitors, and have the strongest chance of being successful.

Our bid writing services:

We provide full writing; partial bid writing; pre-submission professional checks of your own bid (Red Team Review); a comprehensive bid upgrade service (based on your first draft).

Our priority is to win you business and, in many cases, we will be happy to negotiate a performance-related deal covering our fees.
