• Analyze Tender Documents: Review and analyze customer tenders, identifying key requirements, risks, and opportunities for differentiation.
• Risk and Compliance Management: Assess risks in contractual documents and work with stakeholders to develop mitigation strategies. Ensure full compliance with all relevant laws and regulations.
• Monitor and Report Progress: Track bid progress, report on outcomes, and ensure adherence to timelines, helping to maintain a smooth and steady tender process.
• Support Sales Managers: Work closely with Sales Managers during the bid phase to ensure alignment with sales strategies and customer expectations.
