About
This unique book is a practical guide to winning contracts and funding through competitive bids, tenders and proposals. Written in a crisp, accessible style using examples and checklists, it explains how to create bids that are outstanding in both technical quality and value for money. This fully updated third edition extends the scope and content of the book to make it an even more useful and practical guide to successful tendering. New topics include bidding for lottery grants and lottery research funding; bidding for London 2012 contracts; summarizing the bid and structuring the work plan and creating a bid development timeline.
