  • Play a key role in our evolution to revise our pricing processes and enable our data to leverage AI assisted tools to best position the company to win its bids.
  • Drive continuous improvement through the development of pricing tools, templates, standardized methodologies, and responsible use of analytical and AI-enabled technologies to improve efficiency and proposal quality.
  • From time to time, analyze contract plans and financial performance vs. the bid, identify risks and trends, and provide financial insight to support successful contract execution and business outcomes.
  • Other related duties as assigned
