If you read the article it says your turnover must be at least 2 times of the tender value. Cleaning 50 buildings in and out per a contract and theres 5 contracts. I dont think my turn over would be twice the tender amount as im a one man band.

Bet those boys on Dragons Den will go for it, it looks like the sort of thing they would be tendering for.
