I win outsourcing deals through commercial pricing and bid strategy.

Message

At Cognizant, I lead end-to-end bids for IT Infrastructure, Cloud, and Digital Workplace outsourcing deals across UK and EMEA markets. My work has contributed to a 20% increase in proposal win-rates and a 15% increase in deal closures.

I build price-to-win models, fair-market benchmarks, and managed services pricing structures that turn delivery costs, margin levers, and market intelligence into executive-ready commercial narratives. I also use Claude, Copilot, and Gemini to accelerate proposal drafting and research, cutting review turnaround by about 30%.

Earlier, I supported market sizing, investor reporting, SaaS demos, customer experience analysis, and data-driven sales across startups and established businesses.
