All you need to know about bid notification services

If you’ve tendered for work before, you’ll know how invaluable bid notification services are. No one has time to spend hours scrolling through thousands of sites finding new tenders. If this is your first time tendering and you’re wondering how a bid notification service can help, read on.

What are bid notification services?

Many tendering sites offer bid notification services but Hudson Discover offers a more human touch.

Unlike other sites, we don’t use CPV codes to search for our tenders. We have a team of Opportunity Trackers who scour thousands of sites and upload new tenders to our portals. They use industry-driven keywords when posting the tenders, so they are easier to find.

When you sign up to one of our portals, you will be sent email alerts to new tenders. Our bid notification services mean you will never miss any tendering opportunities again. We understand you may not have time to look for tenders every day. But why should you miss an opportunity? With our bid notification services, you won’t have to. We’ll find relevant tenders and email them to you directly.

Our bid notification services have made the tendering process even easier for you. With our email alerts, you’ll be sent regular alerts about available opportunities. Once you receive the alert, get a head start and see if the tender is right for you.

How our portals work

 So, now you know all about bid notification services and how they work, it’s time to move onto our portals.

What to expect from our portals

Excellent functionality for the whole team

Our portal allows multiple team members to use the system at any given time. This is useful if you have a large team, and you all need to gain access at the same time.
