01
Scoping & Kick-off
We review the tender documents, agree the scope and give you a fixed quote.
A kick-off call then confirms owners, deadlines and the evidence we need from your team.
Onboarding Support
Get new starters productive quickly, and keep the ones you worked hard to hire.
People & TalentFixed fee, agreed in writing before any work starts
What Makes Our Onboarding Support Different
Most avoidable leavers go in the first six months, and usually because nobody planned past their first day. We design an onboarding programme covering the practical setup, the first ninety days, who is responsible for what, and the check-ins that catch problems while they are still fixable.
Senior Writers
Experienced writers who already know how your market buys.
Fixed Fees
A written price before we start, with no hourly meter running.
On-Time Delivery
Planned back from the portal date, with time left for review.
Who it is for
Businesses hiring at pace, teams with high early turnover, and contractors mobilising staff onto a new contract.
What you gain
- New starters contributing in weeks rather than months
- Fewer early leavers and less repeated recruitment cost
- Line managers who know what is expected of them
- Mobilisation evidence you can use in bids
Why Our Onboarding Support Service Matters
Smaller suppliers often lose on the page, not on delivery. Our onboarding support service turns your real experience into clear, evidenced answers that score, so evaluators can see what your customers already know. You stay in control of every draft, and nothing leaves without a final compliance check.

Why Work With Us For Onboarding Support?
Get In TouchWe write for the evaluator. Every answer is structured around the published criteria, built on your own evidence and edited to read clearly under time pressure, because that is how marks are awarded.
You deal directly with the writers doing the work, not an account manager passing messages along, and a director reads every submission before it goes out.
Our Onboarding Support Process
A clear, repeatable process keeps every bid on schedule and every answer on target. You stay informed at each stage and approve everything before it is submitted.
02
Onboarding Support In Practice
Most avoidable leavers go in the first six months, and usually because nobody planned past their first day. We design an onboarding programme covering the practical setup, the first ninety days, who is responsible for what, and the check-ins that catch problems while they are still fixable.
What is included: pre-start and first-day process design, structured 30/60/90-day plans by role, induction and training material development, buddy and line manager guidance, probation review framework and check-in schedule.
03
Quality Review
A senior reviewer scores the draft the way an evaluation panel would and flags where marks could be lost.
We refine it with your feedback until you are fully happy with every answer.
04
Submission & Debrief
We run final compliance checks and can handle the portal upload for you.
After the result, we review the feedback together so the next bid is even stronger.
Important: Gautam Group is not a licensed employment agency or employment business. We provide recruitment support — role definition, materials and process design — and do not supply or introduce workers for hire.
Onboarding Questions
If each hire is significant, yes — losing one at month four typically costs several months of salary once recruitment, lost output and management time are counted.
What Clients Say After The Award
Feedback from suppliers we supported on live tenders, shared anonymously at their request.
They rebuilt our quality responses from the ground up and we were shortlisted on a framework we had failed twice before. What changed was the evidence. Every claim was backed by a contract, a date or a measured result, and the evaluators noticed. The team asked sharper questions about our delivery than we had ever asked ourselves. They were honest about which lots we could realistically win, turned our site managers' notes into clear method statements, and kept everything calm when the portal deadline moved forward by a week. We now use them on every framework renewal and recommend them to other SMEs in our supply chain.
We had four days left and a half-finished submission. Their team took it over, ran the clarification questions and filed it with time to spare. We won the lot, and the debrief scores were the highest we have ever had on quality.
The bid library alone has saved us weeks a year. Our team now starts every tender with most of the groundwork already done instead of a blank page, and our answers are more consistent across every portal we submit to.
Honest advice from day one. They told us not to bid on two opportunities that looked tempting but did not suit us, which cost them fees and earned our trust straight away. The ones we did bid on, we won.
Our social value scores went from the bottom of the table to full marks across three consecutive submissions. They showed us how to tie commitments to the actual contract instead of listing everything we do in the community.
Responsive, calm and genuinely good writers. They made a small firm look exactly as capable as it is, and we now have a framework place that has changed the shape of our pipeline.

Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers to the questions suppliers ask us most before their first tender.
Fees depend on the number of questions, the word counts and how much usable content you already have. We quote a fixed price before any work starts, and for many clients we offer a reduced base fee paired with a success bonus on award, so our incentives sit with yours.
A short quality submission can be turned around in a few days. A large framework with several lots usually needs three to four weeks. Tell us the deadline and we will say honestly whether it is achievable.
A director reads every submission, and the person who scopes your bid is the person who writes it. You deal with the writers directly, not an account manager passing messages along.
Yes. Most of our work is public procurement, but we also write private sector proposals, PQQs, RFPs and renewal submissions. Writing to a scoring framework transfers directly.
