I am a sole trader and recently filled out a pQQ Questionaire but didn't score high enough to qualify for the tender process. Is this because being a sole trader goes againts you?? I did find that alot of the questions seemed to be aimed at corporate businesses and were difficult to answer or not applicable,so would just answer N/A. For example how do you treat your staff at work??? Sole trader-you have no staff/employees. Any ideas on how i can improve my next PQQ??
Thanks

usually for tenders your turn over has to be a certain X the amount of the job u r tendering for
-
God we are only talking about maybe a 600-700 per year contract. I obviously earn far more than that. So doesn't make sense. I just get the feeling that being a sole trader went againts me and a bigger company would have stood a far better chance.

Maybe the way you answered the Q's?
What were the Q's?
-
for 600 -700 a year, some thing that small shouldnt be going out to tender, should be 3 people out of the phone book, not a tender company
-
sorry per month i meant. As far as i know i answered the questions fully
-
PS how can you put a price on it anyway when u don't even make the tender process??
-
contact the tendering authoity and ask. 1st tender i done i failed because i wasn't accredited to trade organisations, reason can be varied.
