Mastering Infrastructure Tenders: Proven Strategies and Smarter Tools for Success

Winning construction tenders for infrastructure projects requires a strategic combination of expertise and effective communication. Tailoring your approach to each project is essential, but three key considerations consistently enhance your chances of success:

Thorough Understanding of Project Requirements:

• Showcase a clear understanding of client/owner objectives, project scope, and relevant technical or regulatory considerations.
• Get to know the existing conditions and then tailor your bid to address specific tender requirements, emphasizing how your expertise aligns with project needs.

Innovative and Sustainable Solutions:

• Differentiate your bid by proposing innovative and sustainable solutions that exceed basic requirements.
• Highlight environmentally friendly practices, energy-efficient technologies, or cost-saving innovations aligned with client goals and industry trends.

Effective Communication and Relationship Building:

• Establish strong communication channels with clients through pre-tender discussions and have simple ways of sharing information.
• Know the competitive landscape and their relative strengths/weaknesses, and the projects they’re working on.
• Understand and nurture relationships with key stakeholders, subcontractors, and local supplier partners, showcasing a collaborative and reliable approach to project delivery.

Our amazing customers have streamlined their bidding process using our solutions by leveraging our cloud platform as a shared hub for the tender team, facilitating faster collaboration and communication (both internally and with external stakeholders).

With the ability to have PDF documents, DXF/DWG and other design sources, orthophotos, and other base maps, you can work from a common source of truth all on a shared map.

Tools, like Infrakit FIELD (mobile app), and Infrakit OFFICE combine to offer simple workflows to capture and tag photos for undocumented risks during site trips and help tender teams, who generally lack easy access to BIM tools, to visualize 3D elements in the office or the field.

Users can also capture dronemaps for work phase planning, taking advantage of different seasons for comprehensive ground condition assessments.
