Michael Kitt

Founder of KimonBids

Michael Kitt founded KimonBids after years of watching capable small suppliers lose out on public sector work, not because their offer was weaker, but because the bid process punishes anyone without a full-time tender team. He built the platform he wished he had as a contractor: one place to surface relevant tenders, sanity-check the brief, and turn a draft into a submission-ready response.

His writing focuses on the practical end of UK public procurement. Expect plain-language explainers on the Procurement Act 2023, how the Central Digital Platform actually behaves day to day, and what really separates winning bids from also-rans. No fluff, no jargon for the sake of it, and no advice he has not seen work in the field.

When he is not building the product or reading procurement notices, Michael is usually walking his dog or arguing about football.
