How to win government tenders in Kenya
Winning public tenders is less about luck and more about early discovery, eligibility, and a clean submission. Use this checklist alongside Tenderiser search and alerts.
- Monitor daily. Counties and ministries publish continuously. Save searches for your sectors so you are notified within hours, not days.
- Qualify hard. Check AGPO category, tax compliance, professional licenses, and mandatory certificates before writing a proposal.
- Read the whole pack. Bid documents, addenda, and site visit notes change scores. Confirm closing date and submission method.
- Mirror the evaluation criteria. Structure your technical response in the same order as the scoring table.
- Submit early. Portal uploads and sealed bids fail at the last hour. Aim to finish 24–48 hours before deadline.
