Live UK government tenders, filtered to your trade

Step 06 of the job: paid
The customer pays by card, Apple Pay or Direct Debit. Xero or QuickBooks are updated. A review request goes out. And eleven months later, the annual service reminder books the next job.
Tender opportunities is one part of that step. The rest of the job — quoting, scheduling, certificates, invoicing and payment — runs in the same system, on the same record. See the whole job →
What does tender opportunities replace?
For most trade businesses, hoping for word of mouth. Repeat and referred work costs nothing to win, and this goes and gets it.
Does tender opportunities work on a phone, and offline?
Yes. The mobile app is offline-first: records created on site are stored on the device and synced automatically, in order, when signal returns. Lofts, plant rooms and rural sites were the design brief.
