Consulting for public administrations

THE CHALLENGE

Funding is available, and capacity to use it is not

Calls for funding require technical proposals, delivery plans and reporting, while administration teams are already stretched by day-to-day operations.

  • Calls with short deadlines

    Preparing a competitive proposal takes dedication the organisation does not have spare.

  • Tender documents hard to get right

    A badly framed tender limits the bids, or buys a solution that does not solve the problem.

  • Projects with no follow-through

    With no project office, delivery drifts in schedule, scope and reporting.

WHAT IT IS

End-to-end advice on managing and delivering projects

cinfo advises across the full cycle: strategic definition, funding search, call preparation, tender drafting, project management and technical assistance during delivery.

A multidisciplinary team with over twenty years of public sector experience.

Genuine technical knowledge of the technologies being tendered and deployed.

Experience in European projects, from preparation through to reporting.

Project offices for monitoring and controlling delivery.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What administration teams ask

Can you draft the tender and then bid for it?

No. Drafting a tender and bidding for that same tender are incompatible. When cinfo drafts a specification, it does not bid for it.

Do you only work on video projects?

No. The consulting team covers digital transformation, data, IoT, AI and digital services, as well as the audiovisual field.

Can you join for just one phase?

Yes. We can cover the whole cycle or just where the team needs reinforcement: the call, the tender or delivery monitoring.

Do you have European funding experience?

Yes, in preparing, managing and reporting European-funded projects, as well as regional and national calls.

What is the team's profile?

Multidisciplinary: professionals with over twenty years advising public administrations, backed by cinfo's technical teams.

How long does an engagement last?

It depends on the call or tender calendar. With short deadlines we work intensively from the first meeting.
