These aren't customers who filled in a form asking several bidders and contractors for quotes. We identify fresh tender opportunities as early as possible, so you can put your company in front of them before they start shopping around.
Cold calling is crowded and increasingly ignored. Emails get deleted or land in spam. Social ads disappear from the screen in seconds, competing with countless other businesses for attention.
With Print & Post you put something physical into the customer's hands and home. They may not need a quote that exact day, but they can keep your flyer or letter - on the side, on the fridge, or with their paperwork. When they're ready, your details are already in front of them.
Rather than waiting until someone requests quotes and competing with several bidders and contractors for the same job, you introduce your company earlier. And because these aren't expensive enquiry leads, you can afford to reach considerably more potential customers - from around £1 per opportunity, with Print & Post that can be automated too.
Traditional leads target people already asking for quotes. Tender Alerts is designed to get your company in front of potential customers before that stage - so we wouldn't suggest stopping the traditional leads you buy. Use Tender Alerts alongside them.
If your flyer lands at the right time and stays in their home until they're ready to book, you have the opportunity to become the company they contact first.
Rather than taking our word for it, try it completely FREE for one week. We'll give you 5 fresh opportunities per day for 5 days - 25 in total - with no card required. Have a look at the freshness, source information and dashboard and compare the approach with the leads you're currently buying.

From setup to your first matched tender in under 5 minutes. Each opportunity scored and ready to review.
Tell us what you do. Choose keywords, locations, and contract value ranges that match your business. Use our calculator to estimate monthly tender volumes. Set it once.
Our system scans Contracts Finder and all UK public sector procurement portals every morning. As soon as a tender matches your criteria, we capture it and score relevance.
Your daily tender list arrives at 9am with bid summaries. Tender title, authority, value, deadline. Export to CSV or Excel for your CRM. Everything you need to decide whether to bid.
Public sector contracts are high-value, recurring and far less competitive than the open market. But they are won by whoever responds early and completely. Our leads get you in before the crowd.
Councils, NHS and schools pay on time and repeat. A public contract is recurring, stable revenue. The kind of work that lets you plan a business around it.
Most SMEs never bid. The tenders that match your services see a handful of bidders, not dozens. Your odds of winning are dramatically better than any open market.
We filter to the opportunities you can actually deliver. Your trade, your region, your capacity. No wasted time on tenders you cannot win.
Every tender includes a bid summary and the full document. You start days ahead with the angle already worked out.
Buyers shortlist early responders. A complete, early bid signals a supplier that will be reliable in delivery. Speed is a scoring factor, not a courtesy.
Incomplete bids are disqualified before evaluation. Use our bid summary to hit every requirement. The basics are where most competitors die.
Buyers buy evidence. Completed contracts, case studies and references answer the real question: "can they actually do it?". Show, do not claim.
Clarification questions get you noticed, show engagement, and often reveal scoring detail other bidders miss. Smart questions win quietly.
Buyers are risk-averse. A mistake costs public money. Certifications, insurance and past performance replace confidence with proof. Evidence beats enthusiasm.
A structured, complete, professional bid signals the kind of supplier who delivers on spec. Neatness is a trust signal, not decoration.
Tie every answer back to the buyer's objectives. Value for money, local delivery, compliance. Bids that echo their language feel safer.
The best bids frame a long-term partnership, not a one-off job. Buyers prefer suppliers they will still be happy with in year five.
Every public sector tender is a revenue opportunity for the right business. Here is why each sector needs to be first to bid.
Government IT and digital contracts are among the highest-value opportunities in the public sector. From cloud and software to cyber security and data, councils and departments publish new IT tenders every week.
Patient transport, school buses, courier services, and fleet management are all regularly tendered by the public sector. Be the logistics provider they choose.
NHS trusts, councils and ICBs tender constantly for care, clinical and support services. From care provision to medical supplies, these contracts are regular and high-value.
Schools, hospitals, and council buildings need maintenance, refurbishment, and new builds. Public sector construction tenders range from £50k to £50m and are published weekly.
Real, fresh opportunities at 9am every morning. No credit card. Cancel anytime.

"We won a cleaning contract through a Tenders alert in our first month. The daily feed means we are consistently among the first to respond to opportunities."
"The keyword matching is brilliant. We only see facilities management and cleaning tenders that match exactly what we do. Saves hours of manual filtering every day."
"We were manually checking Contracts Finder every day. Now the tenders come to us at 9am on the dot. Submitted 8 bids in our first month and won two."
"The tender coverage checker showed us there were 40+ relevant construction contracts in our region every month. We had been missing out on millions in revenue for years."
We were spending hours manually searching Contracts Finder every week. Now the tenders come to us at 9am on the dot. Won a £450k IT contract in our first month.
The location filtering is a game-changer. We only see cleaning contracts in the North West between £50k and £500k. Our bid win rate has doubled because we're not wasting time on irrelevant tenders.
I was sceptical about another lead generation service, but this is different. It matches us to real government tenders that already exist. Paid for itself within two weeks of signing up.

Tenders are public, but we match and score them to your business so you only see the relevant ones - and you see them early.
All tender data is sourced directly from the official Gov.uk Contracts Finder API. The same database all UK government departments, local authorities, and public sector bodies use to publish contract opportunities over £10,000. We also supplement with data from other UK public sector procurement portals for maximum coverage.
You choose keyword categories or enter custom keywords. Our engine scans every new tender's title, description, and CPV codes for relevant matches. You can also filter by location, contract value range, and specific CPV codes for precision targeting.
It depends on your sectors and coverage area. Plans include up to 1 tender/day on Starter, 3/day on Pro, and 5/day on Enterprise. A business covering a wide region typically sees the full daily allowance, while a niche trade in one county may see fewer. That's the honest reality of UK tender volumes (a county simply doesn't publish a tender for every trade every day). You can always adjust your filters and coverage.
Absolutely. You can update your keyword categories, locations, and value ranges at any time from your dashboard. Upgrade or downgrade your plan whenever you need more categories or coverage.
Each lead includes the contracting authority, tender title and description, estimated contract value, submission deadline, CPV codes, and a direct link to the full procurement documents. You also get an opportunity score, an bid summary, and CSV/Excel export to track your pipeline.
Absolutely. Every plan comes with a 7 day free trial no credit card needed. You will receive real matched tenders at 9am during the trial so you can see the quality and relevance for yourself.
Tenders are public opportunities. By law they have to be. Any supplier can view the same notices on the official portals (Contracts Finder, Find a Tender, etc.). What we offer is different: we curate the ones that match your business, deliver them to you early each morning so you can respond before the crowd, and give you the tools to win it: bid summaries, full tender documents and deadline tracking, so nothing slips. We never re-sell your matched lead list. It's your own curated feed. One honest note: some areas and sectors genuinely have fewer tenders than others, so your daily volume varies by location.
Stop paying to compete with other businesses for the same enquiry. Tenders gives you fresh daily opportunities, better timing, and lower acquisition costs.
