More value from tenders with Planqed

'How can we make it easier for entrepreneurs to extract more value
from tenders? With this question, the consulting firm Linqed set to work with
as a result the new software Planqed. This software helps entrepreneurs in tenders where an EMVI plan is required. How this works in practice, explains Romy Alberda, co-founder of Planqed and technology consultant at Linqed.

"With Planqed, we make tender processes simple, clear and actionable," explains Romy. "Planqed was developed from the years of experience we have on both the client and contractor sides in the field of tendering. In addition to the pillars of asset management and engineering, tender management is the third important pillar within Linqed. We consider ourselves pioneers because we go beyond conventional methods. We believe in quality and use data to achieve the desired result. We do the same with Planqed: by deploying data intelligently, we make it possible for every company to draw up EMVI plans that offer clear added value and are also actually feasible for the project team." EMVI stands for Economically Most Advantageous Tender. Contrary to what the name might suggest, it is not about who is the cheapest, but about the best value for money. In other words, you have to demonstrate what added value you have to offer beyond the requirements you have to meet.

Added value

Reinier briefly explains how the new software works: "Within Planqed, as an organization you have your own environment with an overview of active tenders. The requirements analysis and the module for preparing the EMVI plan are the most important components. You can load the requirements very quickly and easily from Excel, pdf or another software tool. With a few clicks you link these requirements to the EMVI criteria. That gives you a quick and easy overview of the information you need to draw up the measures for the EMVI plan based on added value. You then turn out a structured EMVI plan at the push of a button. Thanks to this software, you spend less time on the administrative part of tenders, so you can spend more time on strategy and have a better chance of winning a tender."
