The ultimate rule : "Avoid tender for referrals."

This includes having a close relationship with team members. For large accounts, plan at least 1 or 2 years in advance. This will ensure that you have internal sponsors who will support your application when the time comes.

If you don't have 90% of the solutions to the specifications, don't apply.

Applying requires time, resources and your team’s energy. If you deem your chances of selection to be low, it's better to skip it and focus on opportunities that are more in line with your business.
