On site anywhere in Ethiopia
Our team travels to clients all over Ethiopia, from Addis Ababa, Adama, Bahir Dar, Hawassa, Dire Dawa, Mekelle, Gondar and Jimma to every other town, for workshops, installation and training, with remote support between visits.
Does BidFlow write the whole proposal for us?
It drafts each section from the tender and your company's information; your team reviews and edits everything before export.
Which procurement rules does it follow?
Ethiopian public procurement, the World Bank, the African Development Bank, UN agencies and private clients, each with its own VAT, contingency and evaluation weighting.
Does it connect to the ERP?
Yes. A won proposal can become a quotation, customer and project in ELIF's ERP, so the job starts from the numbers you bid.
How do we start?
Request a demo: we set BidFlow up with your company's details and run it on one of your current tenders.
Does ELIF work outside Addis Ababa?
Yes. Our team travels to clients in every region of Ethiopia for workshops, installation, data migration and training on site, and supports them by phone, Telegram and remote session between visits.
