What is the deadline for bids?
There is no deadline and we aim to assess the bids and to notify bidders within six weeks of the bid being submitted. In practice this means that bids are assessed in monthly batches with the last working day of the month as the cut of for each round. Bidders should expect to find out whether they will receive funding within 6 weeks of the monthly cut off. As a rule of thumb, we would therefore suggest that you aim to submit your bid at least thirteen weeks before you would anticipate the first job starting.
