askTender Business · Bid Desk
Your tender department, without hiring one.
For companies that can do the work but have no one to run the bid. askTender finds the government tenders your company can win, works out what each one asks for, gets every registration, certificate and document done by whoever may lawfully do it, prepares the bid and files it with you. You approve and sign.
In 70 countries · 1,779 bidding steps mapped · licensed professionals under each country's own titles
Four parts, one bid
askTender Partners and bid partners are different: Partners are licensed professionals who sign and certify; bid partners are other companies who bring capacity or experience into the bid.
Does the work and stays in charge
You, the company
You deliver the contract. You give the true facts about your company, keep your own portal login and digital signature, sign your declarations and approve every bid before it is filed.
Runs the bid
askTender Desk
Finds the tenders your company can win, reads each one's requirements, builds the checklist, prepares the documents and draft declarations, manages portals and deadlines, coordinates everyone below and files the bid with you.
Licensed professionals in each country
askTender Partners
Do what only their licence allows, under the country's own titles (Steuerberater in Germany; Administrative scrivener (行政書士) in Japan; Chartered accountant in practice in India; Solicitor in United Kingdom; Contador in Brazil): attested financial statements, notarised and apostilled documents, sworn translations, legal opinions, technical certificates.
Other companies, for what you don't have
Bid partners
When a tender asks for turnover, references or a local presence your company doesn't have on its own, a company that has them can bid with you as a consortium or joint venture, or take part of the work as a subcontractor, where the tender allows it.
Example: what a bid in Germany takes
From askTender’s Germany checklist, with who does each step, the official cost and the usual time where they’re published (— where none is). Every country has its own.
When paperwork can’t close a gap
A certificate records what is true; it can’t create turnover, a licence or a reference your company doesn’t have. When a tender asks the company itself for something it lacks, the path is different: a bid partner who has it, where the tender allows a consortium or joint venture; part of a bigger contract as a subcontractor; or a tender that fits your company today. askTender shows which applies before anything is spent.
Every country, step by step
Each country’s checklist: the steps to bid there, who may do each, cost, time and official source.
