During the preparation of a multi-million-riyalsmulti-million riyals NEOM infrastructure bid, our team faced a critical bottleneck: we had only three days to consolidate technical specifications, align costs, and finalize the compliance matrix. I spearheaded a rapid process-mapping session, identified redundant approval steps, and restructured the workflow—cutting our proposal turnaround by 20% and securing stakeholder buy-in under intense time pressure . This experience taught me that without a solid strategic framework and optimized operations, even the best technical solution can fail to win. I realize the importantimportance of studying businessBusiness Administration , I want to learn advanced methodologies such as Lean Six Sigma and scenario planning to embed efficiency and strategic clarity into every bid. Armed with these tools, I’ll be able to craft winning proposals under any deadline, turning high-stakes challenges into success stories.
Upon graduation, I will return to Saudi Arabia to establish a boutique consultancy dedicated to elevating bid and proposal strategies for construction, energy, and public-sector clients. Leveraging my UK-built network of alumni, faculty, and industry partners, I will introduce best-in-class practices in strategic sourcing, process automation, and performance analytics. My ultimate goal is to help Saudi organizations—especially those involved in Vision 2030 megaprojects—achieve higher win rates, operational excellence, and sustainable growth, while mentoring the next generation of proposal specialists. I plan to lead a specialized team that integrates advanced analytics and market intelligence to identify high-value opportunities, tailor compelling proposals, and negotiate optimal partnerships. By implementing data-driven pipelines and continuous improvement cycles learned during my MBA, I aim to boost win-rates by at least 15% year-over-yearyear over year.
