Background
AECOM‘s B+P UK&I Pursuits Team leads and manages B+P’s largest and most strategic tender submissions across its established markets, bringing together strategy, positioning, bid management, co-ordination, writing, visualisation, training and knowledge professionals – and through a culture of collaboration and sharing. The B+P UK&I Pursuits Team creates a focus for strategic pursuits and promotes the use of AECOM’s bid processes and tools to enable capture managers to pursue and control bronze classified opportunities themselves, where a go/no-go has deemed appropriate. The B+P UK&I Pursuits Team’s role is to: prepare and respond to the prospect pipeline; drive strategy, oversee positioning activities, manage and lead the creation and production of winning submissions; and drive bidding improvements and best practice across all sectors within the UK and Ireland.
Our bid managers will lead the bid; they will assist with driving a winning strategy and oversee positioning activities using a consistent method, devising a bid programme, agreeing key deliverables, managing inputs from subject matter experts and driving progress through to successful submission. The bid manager will work collaboratively with the capture manager, technical leads, identified members of the bid team, operational colleagues, writers (where appropriate) and graphics team.
The bid manager will drive the bid through all stages, from capture management and win strategy development, through the pre-qualification questionnaire and proposal submission to interview/presentation preparation and debrief sessions. They will provide consistency through the entire process, responsible for sharing lessons learned and driving continuous improvement in our process and bidding efforts. The bid managers will be pro-active in communicating successes and lessons learned with the B+P UK&I Pursuits Team leadership team and colleagues. They will manage the sharing of information around their pursuits, including updates to regular team reports and trackers, along with monitoring of the relevant opportunities and their accuracy in Salesforce Lightening (our global CRM tool that enables us to have a 360 view of our client relationships, consistency in strategic reporting and the ability to make data-driven decisions), in collaboration with End Market colleagues. The bid managers will lead by example, with a calming influence, and a creative and organised culture and approach to pursuits through the full lifecycle, escalating risks to the capture manager/B+P UK&I Pursuits Team Lead when required.
