It's becoming common for businesses to struggle when the sustainability questions in tenders pop out of nowhere. It's increasingly becoming more of a requirement rather than an option. Not only do these questions come out of nowhere, but they struggle to meet sustainability criteria, often finding themselves unprepared for these evolving procurement standards.

Getting ahead of tender requirements with ready-to-use materials

‍

Guy Day recognised early on that government tenders would increasingly require sustainability credentials when coming across one himself. What started as needing proof of action, turned into positioning his business to meet those requirements all the time.

Early CarbonInvoice customer here! Our recruitment firm needed something simple for government tenders. Connected Xero in minutes, funded trees instantly.

Now, instead of waiting to take action only when they need to submit a tender, it's all ongoing. When it comes time to submit a new tender, they'll have the documents ready.

The ready-to-use pitch materials proved valuable for engaging with government clients who wanted to see evidence of environmental commitment rather than just promises. Guy notes:

The ready-made pitch materials help us engage with our govt clients who want to see evidence.".

This professional support ensured Guy's team could confidently present their environmental credentials during tender processes.

Guy has demonstrated how early adoption of environmental practices can create competitive advantages in government procurement.

The teams has enjoyed participating in planting day events, which provided hands-on engagement with their environmental impact while building team culture.
