Sixfold International Ltd

Sixfold International exists to help its clients win public sector contracts. We can help you exploit the procurement rules to get a real competitive advantage. We have extensive experience in supporting strategically important bids and robustly challenging questionable procurement decisions. Unlike other consultancies we also advise public sector organisations.  This gives us a unique perspective on how to best influence the entire bidding process. The sales leadership forum was an interesting and thought provoking event, and as a direct result we did sit down and really analyse our strengths and weakness as a sales team. One area, where on reflection we could improve, has already been sharpened, executed and implemented with our partners.” Now that the last session has been completed, I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you all very much for everything you have done to make this programme of training a success. All the feedback has been positive and the general feeling from all the groups was that the training was well designed, well presented and for many of them a first experience of this type of bespoke training. You have all made these sessions unique and enjoyable and for that I am very grateful. We can now hope that the learning will be taken back into the workplace and the improved skill levels will be evident over the coming months. I met Andy when he was assisting Guardian Media clients such as IBM and Capita hone their Public Sector bidding skills. I am the bid manager with MidlandHR and Andy, working for Sixfold, undertook a number of assignments with my team and I to improve our Public Sector bid performance. Our bid win rate was about 1:5. As a direct result of Sixfold’s intervention our win rate has increased to better than 1:2. This significant improvement has made a real and substantial difference to the MidlandHR bottom line. We no longer strive to get ‘quality bids’ out on time, but to get winning bids out (on time of course).
