Most tenders are not lost because the proposal was weak. They are lost because of ordinary compliance failures — a missing signature, a wrong subcode, a late delivery.
Wrong PPRA code. Expired tax clearance. Outdated CIPA details. Unsigned Form of Offer. Technical and financial envelopes mixed. Submitted after the deadline. Excellent companies lose this way every week.
Fix the stack first
Before you polish methodology, confirm:
- Exact PPRA code and subcode for the tender
- Current tax clearance
- Trade licence or professional registration if required
- Every mandatory form signed by an authorised person
- Packaging rules followed — original, copies, envelopes, electronic files
