04Marketing and print contracts: common questions
How many marketing and print tenders are live in the UK?
92 right now, from 73 public buyers, with 29 closing in the next 14 days. We bring together notices from Find a Tender and Contracts Finder and refresh this page every hour.
What do buyers ask for in marketing and print contracts?
Few notices state a minimum turnover; it is usually set out in the tender documents. The insurance named most often is employer's liability at around £5m. Most requirements sit in the tender documents rather than the notice, so check the pack before you bid.
Can a small business win marketing and print contracts?
Often, yes. 61 of the 92 live tenders in the UK are marked by the buyer as suitable for small businesses, and 9 are frameworks or dynamic purchasing systems (approved supplier lists that buyers then order from). Smaller lots and lower-value contracts are usually the best place to start. Check the minimum turnover and insurance first, as those are the checks that rule most bids out.
05Expert notes: Professional services
Professional services are often bought through frameworks and evaluated mainly on quality: named staff, case studies and method statements. Professional indemnity insurance levels are a common pass/fail check.
