The changing tender landscape across NZ in 2026 and beyond – how we can help you win!

There has been a substantial shift in the healthcare procurement landscape which is becoming more evident in 2026 and will continue into the future. Healthcare is centrally managed under Health New Zealand (Te Whatu Ora). This presents you challenges and opportunities our tender writers will assist you with including:

• Meeting new documentation and policy requirements. These are required by New Zealand procurement and can include modern slavery statements, safety documentation and sustainability documentation depending on the specific RFP.
• The need to tailor bids and proposals to the local community. This isn’t as easy as focusing on the individual city such as Auckland or Wellington. You need to talk about how your product or service will impact regional communities, identify particular community groups which are vulnerable and demonstrate how the benefits of the contract will firstly address their specific needs, and secondly flow through to them. This ties into social value and local participation, where community health outcomes are critical, and you need to clearly quantify the benefits your proposal will deliver.

Extensive experience writing bids and tenders in medical and healthcare experience

Our reliable and talented team of bid writers is always focused on creating value for you and delivering quality work. We all started and still continue our lives as tender writers and have branches into medical and healthcare marketing and communications.

That means we know that any writing needs to deliver an outcome and we take pride in ensuring we deliver you a quality outcome be it a successful tender or a brochure or website content that generates leads. We have experience advising organisations across the medical and healthcare sector including:

Medical research tenders and funding applications

This includes assisting medical research organisations in applying for research funding and other grants. These are often highly in-depth grant applications in conjunction with universities or funding applications on a global scale. We understand how to navigate the complexities of the application process and put forward compelling reasons for the justification and need of research funding.

These funding applications are similar to tenders and bids in terms of the writing requirements, project managing the funding application and how it can lead to business growth.

Pharmaceutical tenders

We have helped many international pharmaceutical companies break into the New Zealand market and develop a local presence. This is through writing tenders for the provision of exclusive and generic drugs to the government and private hospital sector. We have been involved in businesses development and client mapping activities as well as writing bids and tenders to secure government contracts. Our team has also helped many local pharmaceutical companies and even laboratory testing facilities to secure government and private sector contracts. This includes the local, NZ based subsidiaries of global businesses. Pharmaceutical tenders have a strong product supply component.

When tendering for the supply of medicinal products, there is a focus on exchange rates, logistics and storage and distribution. Our team understand the best-practice methodologies for responding to these questions in order to score well. Furthermore, our bid writers are able to guide you on how to write comprehensive responses and justifications for medicines which may be going generic.

Healthcare products and equipment supply tenders

We have written marketing material, tenders and bids, and technical documentation for a broad range of healthcare products. Examples include, wound care products, fall detection technology and disability and mobility assistance products. Where our clients are looking to penetrate the private sector (such as the nursing and aged care home market), we have developed brochures and responded to requests for proposals and bids to help secure lucrative supply contracts.

Our understanding of medical terminology, as well as our ability to clearly explain and articulate the benefits of products to government departments in a healthcare setting, enables us to increase our clients win rates and provide them meaningful strategic support.

Health and Allied health services tenders and bids in New Zealand

Health services across New Zealand are heavily regulated with the broad range of health service providers such as psychologists and physiotherapists. We have helped healthcare service providers secure contracts to deliver services in regional areas across New Zealand as well as in cities including Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch. Healthcare services tenders and bids have strong focus on service delivery, team and personnel and methodology. The clients, including government departments and the private sector, do not only want to know you are qualified to deliver the services.

They also want to know how you will deliver the services. I.e. your level of organisation in terms of personnel and resources, how you will organise your team structure, what quality assurance processes you have in place and how you will deliver the services geographically.

Writing for both the private and public sector as well as internationally

We’re familiar with the government and private sector. We know what government departments are looking for, how they procure, and how information needs to be presented. The language used when writing to government, as well as the supporting documentation and policies required, are generally more onerous. The private sector is different again, and writing and marketing to the consumer market requires a unique perspective and personal touch. You need to appeal to a different set of concerns – mainly cost and ability to deliver – than government departments who also focus on local industry participation, reporting and contract management.

Our track record of success in healthcare tenders in New Zealand

We have a track record of assisting healthcare industry and medical companies across New Zealand and globally secure government contracts, grow their businesses and get results. Examples include:

• Writing a winning tender for a specialise healthcare bedding manufacturer for intensive care units for the ministry of health. This was a high value contract with extensive detailed questions focused on both technical, and operational (service, training etc) requirements.
• Writing a bid for the operation of a medical centre in the North Island. This included the integration of allied health services into the operation. Our client won the contract.
• Writing a tender for the provision of speech pathology services to vulnerable communities. We won the contract.

We are excited to continue to help our clients secure tenders into 2026.

Client testimonials

We had a large tender to the Ministry of Health for allied health services. We were an incumbent provider and our business basically relied on this contract to exist. It was a lot of pressure when the tender was released and we needed to win it. We also had the opportunity to grow the client as well although we were most concerned with at least retaining the contract in our geographic area.

We asked Tsaks Consulting for help as we liked the fact that they had completed medical and health tenders for doctors, optometrists, psychologists and many other medical and healthcare organisations and they know the industry. It was a good decision. They helped us remain calm and focused throughout the tendering process and they are very skilled writers. They also know how to develop win themes and in a strategy in place to actually ‘win’ the bid not just submit it. They also helped us with the submission process. Our submission was not only successful, however, we grew the client and were successful in expanding into the South Island. Thank you – Tsaks Consulting
