how it works
Creating your profile is the heart of Tenders Direct
Setting up Your Profile
The process starts when you subscribe, simply:
- Enter your details
- Select a business sector
- Choose the geographical area(s) you are interested in
- Select your preferred payment method
Tenders Direct is an essential tool in enabling me to identify and apply for suitable business opportunities in the public sector. In addition to providing a reliable on-line service, on the odd occasion where I have needed to speak to someone in person, the staff have always been very helpful and responsive.

Our profiling team will then call you to set up the categories
that deliver the most relevant tenders for your business.
At this point, you can also choose whether or not to include 'Contract Award Notices'
- these tell you who won a contract and its value.
Using Your Online Account
Whenever you log in, you're taken straight to your own Personal
Workspace within our secure members' area.
Here, you have complete control over all the tenders we've sent you in the last six
months - you can:
- Review the full details of a tender
- Send tenders to colleagues
- Remove any tenders you've decided not to pursue
- Amend and update your profile at any time
- Search our entire tender database
In your Personal Workspace you can also select an optional second email address for
receiving tender alerts.
Receiving Opportunities
We send tender alerts direct to your email inbox the day the tenders are published,
so you're always ahead of your competitors. Here's an Example Alert
of what you'll receive.
