Write the answer once, reuse it on every tender
Tenders ask the same questions in different words. Gaffer’s bid library keeps your best answers by section type, tagged and word-counted, so the next PQQ is assembled from proven content instead of written from scratch under a deadline.
Part of growth in Gaffer, which replaces hoping for word of mouth.

Reviews, referrals, campaigns and tenders — the growth engine, built in.
Collect reviews after every job, run referral and affiliate schemes, send campaigns to the right customers, and find and write public-sector tenders with the bid library.
Repeat and referred work costs nothing to win. Gaffer goes and gets it.
Bid library is one of the 10 things in growth. See the rest →
- Free-text tags so variants are findable
- Word count held against every entry
- Content reused directly in the tender writer
- Builds automatically as you complete bids
- Business-scoped — your content stays yours
- Works with AI drafting rather than instead of it
Step 06 of the job: paid
The customer pays by card, Apple Pay or Direct Debit. Xero or QuickBooks are updated. A review request goes out. And eleven months later, the annual service reminder books the next job.
Growth is where bid library sits, and that is the step it shows up in most. The rest of the job — quoting, scheduling, certificates, invoicing and payment — runs in the same system, on the same record. See the whole job →
What is bid library for?

Do review requests annoy customers?
One message after a completed job, at a delay you set. Customers who are happy are pointed at your public review page and the ones who are not come to you first, which is the right way round.
What counts as a referral?
A link tied to a customer. When someone follows it and becomes a job, the referral is recorded against them along with whatever reward you chose to offer.
Which plan is it on?
Bid library sits on the Enterprise plan, alongside multi-site support, white-label and a dedicated account manager. Everything else in Gaffer is on every paid plan; talk to us and we will tell you honestly whether you need Enterprise or not.
