We're thrilled that, with amazing hard work from our clients, and a little help from ourselves, the bids and tenders we worked on during the last full year enjoyed a 100% win rate. That's seven straight wins in a row, helping: MMC-Gamuda win the tunnelling contract for the...
It's official - the Acorn consortium (including John Laing, Laing O'Rourke, Interserve and BDP) has been appointed preferred bidder on the £237m Alder Hey Children's Hospital PFI project in Liverpool, UK. I appointed Propozition to bring even greater clarity to our proposals. Hospital PFI submissions are by...
The Leadenhall Building (or the Cheesegrater as it has become known) was identified as not only a new landmark building for the City of London but also a 'must win' project for Laing O'Rourke. The building's sophisticated 'everything on show' architecture and complex construction method would require exceptional engineering capabilities. That is why it was...
Nine years' worth of method and techniques that we've been using to write successful, high-scoring bids are now packaged up and available to share with our clients through training courses. The feedback from delegates to this interactive and focused training has already been extremely positive. For more...
It was critical that Laing O'Rourke achieved a place on the top tier of this public sector buildings framework for Wales. The interview presentation was the prime opportunity to not only reinforce Laing O'Rourke's core capabilities but also to demonstrate the added value that this bidder would...
The RIBA-led design competition for the £120m new-build Guys & St Thomas' Cancer Treatment attracted nine contractors working with the world's leading 'starchitects' including Foster + Partners, Zara Hadid and Hopkins Architects. We were engaged from the outset to develop an Expression of Interest document and initial presentation that...
Diary commitments meant that the consortium team was only available to meet and prepare for the interview some 24 hours before the event. Our role was to ensure that the team had a clear and compelling presentation, with attractive support materials, that they could deliver with confidence the following morning. Working from...
This was our third engagement by Laing O'Rourke on a BSF (Building Schools for the future PFI) bid and it proved to be a third consecutive win. Over a six month engagement, we ran key messages workshops, prepared the consortium teams (including JV partner Hochtief) for ...
Laing O'Rourke has, once again, engaged us to produce the critical final interview presentation for this NHS ProCure21 new-build hopsital project. As with our previous similar engagements, we worked with the consortium team to storyboard the presentation, produce the audio-visual support material, help the team build...
Having supported Laing O'Rourke's first BSF win at Newham, we were engaged from the beginning of this bid development process to shape the win themes, build key presentations, write executive summaries and edit the bid submision documents. This particular procurement also involved each bidder staging a one-day...
Working with Laing O'Rourke and RM Education (and many others in the Newham Learning Partnership consortium), we were engaged to support the consortium from the very beginning of the process - even attending Newham Council's Open Day with the consortium before they had confirmed their decision to bid. Over a...
We were engaged by Equion (John Laing, Laing O'Rourke and Interserve) to help them win the PFI contract to design, build, finance and maintain a new 512-bed hospital for Maidstone & Kent NHS Trust. Our appointment reflected a 100% win rate working with John Laing on hospital...
Having supported Equion (now John Laing) winning four hospital PFI schemes in a row, on this relatively smaller project, we were engaged to help embed some of the principles that had worked so well on the previous bids - effective storyboard review in particular. Propozition helped us...
Like all NHS ProCure21 projects, the client would require a short document, but the key decision would be made at an interview presentation. For this project, the specific challenge we identified was to explain a relatively complex project governance process in the simplest possible way. So, in...
Building on our contribution to helping Equion (now John Laing) win both North Staffs and Leicester Hospitals PFI schemes, engaged us to help them do the same on this major Scottish scheme. We worked with the Scotland team (including Serco and Laing O'Rourke) to distil the key messages, to improve...
This three-hospital city-wide redevelopment project required a large number of presentations and staff exhibitions as well as conventional paper bid-submissions. Working from the beginning of the bid development process right through to preferred bidder stage, we helped the consortium of Equion (now John Laing), Laing O'Rourke, BDP...
Equion (now John Laing) commissioned us to help them win this 37-year concession to design, build, service and fund a new hospital in Stoke on Trent. Our role was to take a long written submission and turn that into a compelling executive summary, and also to...
The NHS ProCure21 framework would be the primary means of Laing O'Rourke accessing hospital building contracts that were outside of the Public Finance Initiative. 16 bidders were to make their cases for a place on the new framework in a process culminating in one-day-per-bidder formally-evaluated workshop...
