I write the quality and social value sections for CQC-registered providers bidding for local authority contracts. Fixed price per section. Everything in writing.
Send me a tender Two-page read of what the buyer is scoring — £395, back within 48 hours.Quality typically carries 35–60% of the score on a local authority home care framework. Social value carries a further 10%. Together that is more than price — and it is the part written at eleven at night, by a registered manager who has already done a full day.
Evaluators are instructed to stop reading at the limit. An answer that runs long is not marked down — the end of it is simply never read.
Describing what you do scores 2. Showing what you did, with a name, a date and a number attached, scores 4. The gap is not knowledge.
Insurance dates, registration details, declarations, file formats. None of it earns a mark. Any of it can end the bid before a word is read.
No day rates, no quotes, no scope creep. You know the cost before you commit, and it does not move.
Two pages, back within 48 hours: what the buyer is actually scoring, the pass/fail traps, which questions carry the marks, and an honest bid or no-bid verdict. Written before you commit a single evening to the tender.
One section, written to the buyer's published social value criteria — with named accountability, dated commitments and metrics that convert into contract KPIs.
One quality or method statement question, written to the published scoring standard. This is where the contract is won.
Every scored written question for one tender, drafted, evidenced and consistent across answers.
Monthly: two tenders and unlimited triage, so you stop deciding whether a bid is worth the time.
The guarantee. If your submission is rejected on a compliance point I wrote, you do not pay — full refund of that fee.
I do not guarantee that you will win, and you should be wary of anyone who does. Compliance is objective and checkable. Winning is not.
This is a deliberate way of working, not a limitation. Every question and answer stays on record, so nothing is lost between a phone call and a deadline — and you are not spending an afternoon in a diary slot you did not want.
A link or reference number is enough to start.
Eight questions, about fifteen minutes. Type it, or record a voice note if that is quicker — I work from either.
48 hours for a triage. Five working days for a full section.
Your voice, your evidence, your submission. One round of revisions included.
Most social care commissioners score written answers on a four-point scale. The difference between the top band and the middle is not expertise — it is specificity.
| Score | What the evaluator is looking for |
|---|---|
| 4 · Excellent | Full confidence in the response, including a timed action plan with deliverables and measurable metrics |
| 3 · Good | Proportionate, addresses all requirements, partial demonstration of delivery |
| 2 · Satisfactory | Adequate; addresses some requirements; partial evidence |
| 1 · Poor | Not relevant or proportionate; no demonstration of delivery |
Every answer I write is checked against that scale before it goes back to you.
One email is enough. No form to fill in, no call to book.
