I have put in for a few, only got one, good little number as it happens.

Don't go in any cheaper than you charge anyone else. What would be the point?

we do ronnie as you say the tendering process is now getting silly and a lot of time has to be spent just filling in the tenders, i recently jacked in one very large contract not because the job was hard but got fed up of all the bullcrap that went with the contract,i thought my prices where are on the cheap side for this kind of work but there are a lot who are even cheaper in fact the only way they could make them pay would be to miss a lot of the work if you need to discuss any further ie profit margins on this type of work etc give me a call

sorry ronnie i dont know any that do it, but i recomend you get all the information together for any future contracts you apply for as they all want similar, is it stuff like enviromental policies and equal rites policies that you require
