  10. What suppliers think about the TRS… “The Tender Review Service has proved very insightful for us. Our immediate reaction to the Review was one of realisation in that we initially thought we had done a good job on our tender, but the Report enlightened us as to how we could have done much better. We liked the way the Review was honest and accurate - if something needed to be called a spade, the Review did just that! As an SME we can sometimes be slightly insular and so having an independent Review undertaken by a third party has been a really interesting process. We look forward to applying the lessons learnt!" Mark Roberts, Director, Civil Engineering Solutions Ltd. What procurers think about the TRS… “We, at Carmarthenshire County Council, are all for raising tendering skills of suppliers – the great thing about the Tender Review Service is that it is an in-depth, bespoke and high quality service, thus giving suppliers the perfect opportunity to raise their tendering skills significantly in one swift move. We can not recommend it highly enough!” Alan Aitken, Procurement Manager, Carmarthenshire County Council
