We've worked with Leanne for several years and during that time have created filters to ensure we don't miss anything. It took some time to refine these based on the daily tender feed emails but it was worth it. We now avoid trawling through numerous tender portals.

We use Tenders Direct on a daily basis and it's a great tool as it allows us not only to shortlist the best tenders for our company but also to manage in all steps of the process.
We can also use the documents available in the Library to manage tenders inside the company and we have been taking advantage of training they provide to help us BID in an informed way.
Leanne has been great, always available to respond to our queries and providing insightful information on the tools available.
