Procurement support

Create genuine competition and make materially different offers comparable.

Similar headline prices can conceal very different scopes, funding structures and allocations of risk. A tender may attract an institutionally funded developer, an installer with a finance partner, a smaller business with its own funding, or a construction-only contractor.

How I can help

  • Define a clear tender brief and response format so suppliers price consistent requirements and disclose their assumptions.
  • Identify suitable bidders and lead the agreed tender, clarification and evaluation process.
  • Examine who will fund, build, own and operate the project, and the implications for delivery and the proposed contract.
  • Reconcile differences in scope, generation forecasts, exclusions, indexation and performance commitments to make a fair comparison.
  • Check for errors, unsupported claims and optimistic assumptions; test seller forecasts independently rather than accepting the stated return.
  • Explain the material differences between bids and support preferred-bidder selection and subsequent negotiations.

What you receive

A structured tender and evaluation, or a focused review of existing bids, with a clear account of the differences, risks and negotiating priorities.
