Industry: Central Government, Construction, Facilities Management, Education, Healthcare, Retail, Real Estate and Commercial Sectors Services: Strategy Consulting,  Account Growth, Strategic Planning, Pipeline Generation, Competitive Assessment, Bid Qualification, Benchmarking The Client One of the largest privately-owned business services provider operating across construction and facilities management sector The Challenge The business 3-year growth strategy was to grow their business from £50m to £100m but the board faced cultural challenges, capability issues, lack of standard sales process and talent constraints in pursuing the growth. The Solution We reviewed their medium-term growth plan and their current markets and drafted a detailed report designing growth plan with 5 strategic growth initiatives – onboarding growth from current markets/customers, pipelines in new markets and partnerships, restructuring operations to regional and national delivery models, building standard pricing models and operational margin improvements initiatives. We then implemented the top 5 strategic growth initiatives over a period of 3 months, and then worked with the board to construct a detailed growth improvement plan for the business. Using data analysis, we benchmarked 20 contracts, refreshed all of their costing models, aligned operational data with bid financials. We also reviewed governance and project reviews, amended key bidding metrics, analysed past 5-year performance and compared it with relevant competitors. We then did a strategic planning exercise to demonstrate how to maximise growth with a set BD budget.
