Without computer software, many basic business operations wouldn’t be performed. That being said, most businesses either don’t have a big IT Team, or don’t have one at all. Therefore, they require IT support for their systems.
There are various types of computer software tenders that you could bid on. The 10 most common types are:
However, out of these 10, there are four computer software tenders that you will find are the most common.
One of the most common computer software tenders buyers procure is application software. This often involves creating an application to be used by end-users. In most cases, it is classed as non-essential software but is used by the majority of businesses for general operations. This includes:
System software tenders will be issued by buyers who are needing support with the hardware systems they use. You will be supporting them with the function of their systems, ensuring they operate efficiently. For example, retailers will likely need to outsource this for their till operation systems and hardware.
Buyers will issue these computer software tenders when they are looking for help with their external devices. This could involve connecting the external devices to a central computer system and having them run smoothly using driver software. For example, devices could include:

Technology Tenders can save you time trolling through hundreds of sites. We source tendering opportunities so that you can focus on running your business. Meaning you can find relevant computer software tenders that are perfect for you in just a few clicks!
We use manual tracking
Other portals rely on Common Procurement Vocabulary (CPV) codes to categorise tenders. However, they have been known to be ambiguous and file tenders under the wrong codes. This means you could be missing out on opportunities to tender.
Instead of using CPV codes, our Opportunity Trackers manually tag contracts they find to ensure they reach the right businesses. You can filter live tenders using keywords, industry, location, and budget to find the best opportunities for your business.
