The Business Development Team at CaRS plays a crucial part in our continued success, securing complex, high-value government contracts. As a Solution Architect, you will be pivotal in this process, ensuring our bids are not just compliant, but compelling and persuasive.

  • Visual Professionalisation: Maintain strict adherence to MoJ standards by managing the professional formatting of documents (fonts, margins, tables).
  • Compliance Assurance: Assist in rigorous cross-referencing of final drafts against the Invitation to Submit Final Tender (ISFT) requirements.
  • Document Management: Implement robust version control and manage document folders efficiently to ensure team-wide alignment on the latest draft.

 

3. Knowledge Management & Research</strong>

  • Evidence Library: Systematically catalogue critical "proof points" (e.g., audit scores, HMIP reports, success metrics) to form a robust, accessible bid library.
  • Proposal Research: Conduct targeted research into the Authority, market trends, and competitor strategies.
  • Case Study Development: Support the creation of powerful case studies that effectively showcase G4S's proven capabilities.
