What is BidWrite’s approach to confidentiality?

We are critically aware that company information disclosed during tendering is often sensitive and that reputations, livelihoods and even business survival can be at stake.

How is BidWrite’s live bid support different from using a professional writer?

Put it this way. If you wanted your expensive watch repaired, you’d use a specialist watchmaker, right?
