Bid/Constortium
Management
United
Healthcare's professional Bid Management service ensures that bids
are pro-actively managed by a very experienced manager who fully
understands the NHS PFI approval process and all aspects of "winning
bids". We have an 80% success rate, which we are keen to protect,
so will only undertake projects where we have a very high level
of confidence in achieving a successful financial close.
We
have strong links with Health Planners, Construction contractors,
Architects, M&E contractors, Structural Engineers and support
services providers, such as Facilities Management companies, IT
and Equipment Suppliers, within the PFI sector.
