Tips for Small Businesses
- Highlight any niche expertise your small firm has (e.g., mental‑health counselling or remote health assessments) to stand out against larger bidders.

- Emphasise social value – local employment, community health initiatives or flexible service delivery can boost your score in government evaluations.
