  • Receive bids in one comparable structure instead of five different quote formats.
  • Track questions, revisions, exclusions, and award decisions in one audit trail.
Request contractor access

For subcontractors

Respond to contractor invitations

Review the scope a contractor has invited you to price, then make your programme, exclusions and qualifications clear in your response.

  • Open a contractor invitation and review the permitted package information.
  • Submit structured bids that make your price, programme, and qualifications clear.
  • Keep quotation revisions and clarifications attached to the invited package.

Operational workflow

Built around how construction tendering actually moves

01

Tender issued

Contractors create a structured package with the information subs need to price properly.

02

Your suppliers invited

Invite existing supplier contacts to the packages you want them to price.

03

Bids compared

Review original prices, programme, exclusions and explained comparison adjustments.

04

Award recorded

The final decision is backed by timestamps, documentation, and a clean decision trail.

Bid comparison proof

Compare the full bid, not just the lowest price.

TenderBid is launching with a focused beta, so the site should show how the workflow will work in practice. This example shows the core promise: structured tender details in, comparable subcontractor responses out.

Example package

Groundworks package · Coventry

Value band, scope notes, site constraints, bid deadline, and supporting documents sit together.

Comparable bids

Price, programme, exclusions, accreditations

Contractors compare the real commercial shape of each bid, not just the headline number.

Subcontractor fairness

Fit and capability alongside price

Specialists can make qualifications, availability, exclusions, and programme clear before award.

Award record

Clarifications and decisions retained

Messages, revisions, shortlisting, and award decisions are designed to stay in one audit trail.

Verification and security

A new company launch, handled carefully.

TenderBid is currently onboarding early users, not pretending to be a fully open marketplace overnight. The beta is deliberately controlled so verification, bid comparison, document handling, and support can mature with real construction teams.

Private supplier book

Keep supplier contacts, private notes and participation history within your contractor company.

Controlled records

Tender documents, messages, bid revisions, and award decisions stay attached to the procurement record.

Real contact route

Early-access teams can reach TenderBid directly for onboarding, support, and product questions.

Beta before scale

TenderBid is onboarding a focused founding cohort before opening self-serve marketplace access.

Qualified early access

Join the first UK construction teams shaping TenderBid.
