FIND IT IN PLYMOUTH ⚓ A new portal has recently launched in Plymouth, designed to strengthen connections between buyers and suppliers and drive growth in the local supply chain. Commissioned by Devon & Plymouth Chamber, Babcock International Group and Plymouth City Council, the new 'Find It In Plymouth' website offers an invaluable resource for Plymouth-based businesses to supply their goods and services across the city. Since launching, over £810 million worth of tenders, invitations to quote and procurement opportunities have been added to the platform, from some of the city’s biggest buyers. Access is free, and by signing-up businesses can: ·   Search for business opportunities in Plymouth ·   Receive targeted procurement opportunities ·   Review invitations to quote ·   Find local suppliers to work with ·   Advertise their own opportunities. Find It In Plymouth also highlights key events, and there's a REALLY good one for local SMEs coming up on 13th November 😜 As a passionate advocate for helping SMEs grow their businesses via bidding and tendering, I’m excited to see how this platform will support Plymouth's business community. #PlymouthBusiness #LocalSupplyChain #SMEs #Procurement #BidWriting #BusinessOpportunities #b2g #b2b

𝗠𝗮𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗯𝗶𝗱𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗲𝗮𝘀𝘆 Each week I share a tip, designed to make your journey of growing your business by selling to the public sector easier. Keep it personal. Never reply with a stock answer. Doing this stands out like a sore thumb and looks lazy. Tailor your response to each bid you submit. Take the time to read and understand the tender documentation. Read each question and answer it in full, considering the requirements of the buyer. Each tender is different and so is every buyer. If you aren’t sure what a particular question means, use the question and answer feature to ask the buyer.
