2011 may have seemed full of economic doom and gloom for most businesses, but one firm managed to exceed all expectations when it came to beating the depression and supporting their clients to win new trade. Tenders-UK, a Rutland-based company which specialises in writing bids, tenders and proposals for companies, achieved an outstanding win rate for their clients, netting over one hundred million pounds in new business for their customers.

The company, which was formed in 2009 by Director Mark Frost, works with a range of businesses seeking to procure new trade through the submission of proposals. They offer bid writing and consultancy, proposal management and evaluation, and advice on how to maximise the attributes of each company they work with to generate more business. As a company which started with a team of one, the firm has grown over the years and now boasts nine full-time employees and almost forty associates.

Many companies feel as if bidding for new work is low on the list of priorities in times of economic difficulty, but Tenders-UK are demonstrating that this is exactly the right time for firms to strive to take on and win new business. The company work with firms of all sizes and across all industry sectors to support people to generate a wider customer base and bring in more revenue. With specialists across most sectors ranging from the Social Care industry right through to Traffic Management, the firm are proving that with the right team, it’s possible to win significant new contracts regardless of the economic climate.

Mark Frost commented on the achievement of his firm: “I am delighted with what we have achieved over the past twelve months. When I set the business up, our primary focus was to support small and medium family enterprises through the often complex tender process. I knew there were outstanding firms out there which were simply not getting the customer base and recognition which they deserved, because they failed the tender process.”

“As we have grown over the past few years, we’ve expanded our reach to support larger corporate clients, but over half of the new contract wins we delivered for our customers last year was awarded to these small firms, family owned businesses that are now much more prosperous as a result of our intervention. Our values have stayed the same throughout the growth of Tenders-UK, and this is a great milestone for our organization.”

At a time when the bid and proposal industry seems to be focussing upon price over quality, the team at Tenders-UK have shown that with the right support, a strong firm can secure winning bids by concentrating on their attributes, demonstrating that quality is still a key factor in the bid industry.

DURHAM, N.H. – The University of New Hampshire’s premier MBA program for seasoned professionals, the Executive MBA offered by the Whittemore School of Business and Economics, has chosen historic downtown Portsmouth for its location beginning this fall.

The only Executive MBA program north of Boston, UNH’s program is targeted to mid- to senior-level professionals with multiple years of work experience who are looking for a top-level business degree and to expand their network and learn from other experienced professionals.

It is home to nationally acclaimed theatre and music, many historic sites and museums, and first-class dining. The National Trust for Historic Preservation called the city “one of the most culturally rich destinations in the country.”

The Executive MBA is a fast-paced leadership program held on alternating weekends (Friday and Saturday) to give busy professionals time to complete their degree while balancing work and family commitments. Featuring small class sizes, top level UNH professors, and peer teamwork, the program encourages and promotes stimulating participation and excellent networking opportunities. Most students will spend Friday nights at the Sheraton, giving them time to work and study with their teams and attend occasional speaking events. Students also participate in a 10-day off-campus residency abroad in the spring as part of the International Management course.

The Whittemore School’s Executive MBA program is the first of its kind in New England, AACSB accredited and the school is an active founding member of the Executive MBA Council — the organization that unites Executive MBA programs globally in their mission, direction and quality.
