For SME Developers

Build your perfect project team

Goto-Tender gives SME developers a professional, structured workflow to create tender packs, post tenders to a verified contractor marketplace, and award projects with confidence — without the overhead of a full in-house procurement team.

Start as Developer

AI-Powered Document Generation

Generate professional Scope of Works, Bills of Quantities, and Invitation to Tender documents in minutes. Our AI is trained on industry construction standards, so the output is ready to use.

Verified Contractor Network

Access a curated marketplace of vetted main contractors and subcontractors. Every firm on the platform has been through our verification process — no cold calls, no guesswork.

Integrated Contractor CRM

Manage contacts, contractor relationships, and invite specific firms to tender directly on the platform in a few clicks. Say goodbye to scattered spreadsheets and email threads.

Structured Project Workflow

A structured workflow for both main contractors and subcontractors ensures every tender pack is complete from day one. Standardised steps guide you from project setup to award.

Build Price Data

Our goal is to build the first accurate, anonymous build cost dataset based on awarded main contractor tenders, providing accurate £/sqft data across the UK. We know developers need real-time build cost data - we aim to help the market build with confidence.

Intelligent Bid Comparison

Compare bids side by side with standardised BQ pricing, addendum adjustments, contractor additions with plug-rate normalisation, and programme comparison. Make the best-informed award decision with a clear audit trail.

Structured Document Control

Organise project documents into Architectural, Structural, MEP, and Other Reports folders. Set the RIBA stage at project creation so consultants and contractors can immediately assess information maturity.

Consultant Collaboration

Invite architects, QSs, and engineers to collaborate on project documentation. Consultants see the RIBA stage classification and access the relevant document folders without full platform access.

Formal Addendum Management

Issue formally numbered, dated, and immutable addenda post-tender approval. Every change to the BQ, scope, drawings, or commercial terms is logged and notified to contractors automatically — creating a complete audit trail from issue to award.

RFI Log

Replace informal emails with sequentially numbered Requests for Information. Every query is logged, responded to formally, and tracked through to closure — giving both parties an auditable record for post-tender close-out.

Why Goto-Tender

Built for the industry, not just inspired by it

The construction industry deserves better tooling. Goto-Tender is the platform we built because the existing options were either too expensive, too generic, or simply not designed for the way SME developers and contractors work.

Built for the SME market

Goto-Tender is not a generic procurement tool adapted for construction. It is built specifically for the pre-construction market, with workflows, terminology, and pricing that reflect how SME developers and contractors actually operate.

Verification at the core

Every contractor on the platform goes through a verification process before gaining full marketplace access. This protects developers from unqualified firms and gives verified contractors a credibility signal that sets them apart.

Modern technology, practical application

AI handles document generation and scope writing. Formal addendum management, numbered RFI logs, and structured bid comparison handle the professional process. No unnecessary complexity, no steep learning curve — just a platform built for how construction tendering actually works.

Transparent, proportional pricing

Developers pay a flat monthly subscription with no hidden fees. Contractors pay only when they choose to bid. There are no annual lock-ins, no enterprise contracts, and no pricing tiers designed to obscure the real cost.

“The modern platform for verified construction tendering — from project brief to awarded contract.”
