Bid writing ROI calculator for UK FM teams

Put your own numbers against the £129 toolkit price. The calculator does not predict contract wins. It shows how little avoided bid-support time is needed before the purchase starts to make financial sense.

  • Uses your inputs only
  • No revenue forecast
  • No win guarantee
  • Formula shown on the page

Estimate your first-bid payback

Start with realistic numbers. If the toolkit saves even a fraction of one external bid-support day, the arithmetic is usually straightforward.

What the numbers mean

The toolkit is not meant to replace specialist help on every opportunity. The point is narrower: stop paying someone else to rebuild basic structure, evidence checklists and bid/no-bid discipline from scratch.

Counts in the calculator

  • External bid writer or consultant days reduced
  • Internal hours saved through reusable templates and trackers
  • Repeat use across similar FM, M&E or building services bids

Does not count

  • Extra revenue from winning a tender
  • Legal, procurement, tax or accounting advice
  • Any assumption that the toolkit replaces a strong bid writer on a critical contract

The formula

First-bid cost pressure avoided = external days reduced times day rate, plus internal hours saved times internal hourly cost. Payback multiple = that number divided by the toolkit cost.

Input Default Reason for including it
External support reduced 0.5 days at £375/day Half a day is enough to show whether the toolkit clears the purchase price.
Internal bid time saved 6 hours at £35/hour Reusable templates and trackers mainly save coordination, rework and blank-page time.
Repeat use 8 similar bids per year The files are reusable within one business, so the first bid should not be the only value case.

If the maths works, buy the system.
