Because they are so critical to winning new work, as well as keeping existing contracts, bid coordinators are vital to a company's continuing existence, and to job security.Bids are detailed, complex documents that often run to hundreds of pages, outlining how the candidate organisation would meet a contract's requirements. They cover a wide range of issues, from health and safety to customer care and staff issues, and are weighted for quality as well as price.I am responsible for assisting the Bid Manager in submitting a completed bid to an existing or prospective client, on time and within budget.
