As we analyzed the results of our [2015 Global Construction Survey](http://wp.me/p4in2v-2K), we realized that construction companies both locally and internationally face 2 main problems:

- how to **grow** their business, especially when trying to expand outside of their core market (which includes finding new leads and finding the right partners),
- how to **execute** these projects in a timely fashion once they’ve been awarded.

Until recently, ProTenders, with its advanced eTendering platform, online document management and bid submittals and advanced analysis tools, was mostly geared towards helping companies solve the 2nd part of the problem.

With our latest release, we’ve grown our suite of products to cater to the business development needs of construction companies using the same core values at the heart of the ProTenders philosophy; drive efficiency and reduce risk.

A few weeks ago, [we told you we’d be introducing simplified pricing](https://blog.protenders.com/2014/02/03/monaqasat-protenders-5th-birthday/) that reflects how our customer base has changed. As we’ve grown, we’ve found ourselves supporting a wider range of companies, with not only different, but also evolving needs with regard to the ProTenders platform.
