Learn how to successfully tender for work with Lightbulb Credit

Credit profiles are critical within the construction industry, especially when tendering for work. It becomes a measure of a business’s financial health and stability, and organisations use it to gain valuable insights.

When you decide to tender for work, your credit ratings must be above the contract awarding body’s “hurdle rate” for you to be successful. Knowing and understanding your credit profiles should be the first step when considering tendering.
