A system for managing the preparation of a bid document in response to a tender receives clauses selected from a tender document and categorises each clause into one of a plurality of clause categories. An author association component of the system associates each clause categorised as a response requirement with a response author. A messaging component sends a response template including at least one response requirement to an associated response author, and receives the completed response template from the response author. A bid document generator generates a bid document on the basis of the response text received from response authors.
