04Marketing and print contracts: common questions

How many marketing and print tenders are live in London?

25 right now, from 20 public buyers, with 9 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. 22 of the 25 live tenders in London are marked by the buyer as suitable for small businesses, and 3 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.
