Increasing Market Share
Bidding for public sector contracts or applying to join commercial supply chains is a highly competitive process. With more and more contract opportunities being published on public portals, the number of suppliers willing and able to tender is also increasing. So how do you rise above the crowd?
Increasing your public sector market presence needs a focused approach and smart tactics to raise your visibility in this crowded area. Intend will help you to:
- register on all relevant portals and supplier databases
- identify buyers and get on to their radar
- create a company profile that clearly proves your credentials
- check out who's been winning work in your area and when the contracts come up for renewal
- work with your team to develop a business development plan to increase your market share

International Business Development
Our directors developed their early careers in international bidding and contract management and can help you overcome the many barriers and simplfy the process. We are delighted to be able to operate internationally as this is a very specialist field not offered by many other procurement experts.
Business Plans
If you are moving into new markets or setting up a new venture, a good business plan will ensure that you are able to deliver the results you need.
Intend can support you at various stages of putting your plan together:
