Supply proposals have not evolved much over the last 10 years because unsuccessful bidders have only been privy to basic feedback on their bids. Bidders have received the minimum information on why they lost, and why their competitors won. This feedback has been limited because the supplier community is reticent to be completely transparent, therefore denying opportunities for real improvement in the quality of bid submissions.

As a procurement professional, Amit Kapoor has had privileged access to a lot of proposals from suppliers.  By sharing his experience, he will help the supplier community improve their internal pre-sales processes and increase their bid success rate.

Over the next few episodes, we will focus on tenders and the tendering process. First up, discover how to improve your next submission, by identifying the most common traits of bids that lose. We identify which areas you focus on and learn how to avoid making the same mistakes.
