The Three Pillars of Winning
Strategy First
Winning starts before the RFP lands. We align your value proposition to the customer’s deepest pain points.
APMP Excellence
Our frameworks are grounded in global best practices, ensuring every response is compliant, persuasive, and professional.
High-EQ Leadership
Bidding is high-pressure. We manage the emotional labor of the process, keeping your team focused, energised, and performing at their peak.
Capture Strategy Workshop
2 hour facilitated session delivered in person or online
The Pre-Bid Edge
Winning is shaped long before the RFP lands. This workshop applies the APMP Capture Framework to your specific opportunity, giving your team the strategy, positioning, and win themes needed to compete effectively from the start.
Best Suited for:
Organisations pursuing a high-value or strategically significant opportunity where early preparation and clear positioning will determine the outcome.
What We Deliver
Opportunity Assessment
We evaluate strategic fit, competitive position, and win probability so you pursue the right opportunities with confidence.
Win Strategy
A documented strategy built around your customer’s priorities, with defined win themes that shape every part of your submission.
Competitive Analysis
Ghost strategies and competitor positioning that identify where you hold a genuine advantage and how to make it count with the evaluator.
Transition to Proposal
A clear handover plan ensuring your strategy, win themes, and messaging are documented and ready for your writing team from day one.
Live Bid Strategy Workshop
2 Hour facilitated session delivered in person or online
The Pressure Test
An RFP is live and the clock is running. This workshop brings your bid team together to define a clear, customer-focused strategy for a specific opportunity and covers storyboarding, win theme development, and the discriminators that will set your submission apart.
Best Suited for:
Organisations with an active tender who need to align quickly, sharpen their strategy, and ensure every section of the response is working toward a consistent and compelling message.
What We Deliver
Bid Strategy
A customer-focused strategy aligned to the evaluation criteria and what the decision-maker values most.
Persuasive Win Themes
Develop customer-centric statements linking your unique features, benefits, and proof points to evaluation criteria.
Discriminators & ghosting
Identify your unique strengths, paired with targeted ghosting to expose competitor weaknesses.
Transition to Proposal
A handover plan that carries workshop outcomes directly into proposal development.
Post Bid Review Workshop
2 Hour facilitated session delivered in person or online
The Intelligence Cycle
Every bid — won or lost — contains intelligence your team can use. This workshop delivers a structured review of two recent submissions across eight functional categories based on APMP global industry best practice standards, giving your team the insight to strengthen future responses and improve win rates.
Best Suited for:
Organisations who have recently completed one or more submissions and want to turn that experience into a structured, practical improvement plan rather than move straight to the next bid.
What We Deliver
Submission Review
Prior to the workshop, we assess two recent bids across eight functional categories such as Strategy and Messages, Client Focus, and Competitive Focus.
Strategy and Messaging Feedback
Workshop delivery of clear, evidence-based findings on the strength of your strategy and win themes, how client and competitive focus came through, and how effectively your value was communicated to the evaluator.
Strengths and Gaps Analysis
An honest assessment across compliance, document structure, page design, graphics, and writing style — identifying what worked, what fell short, and where the greatest opportunity for improvement lies.
Practical Improvement Plan
Prioritised recommendations across all eight categories, discussed and agreed in the workshop, ready to apply to your next bid.
