Teaching Thales Air Defence how to write bids in a clear and concise way
Quick facts
Thales Air Defence is an advanced engineering company, located in Belfast, and is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Thales. The main activity of the company is the manufacture of short range air defence missile systems.
Courses
The Thales Air Defence subject matter experts based in Belfast were struggling with communicating the written word in their bids in a clear and concise way.
Although it was recognised that they needed some bid writing training, time out of the office was a luxury, and it needed to be spent carefully. If they weren’t at their desks – they weren’t writing bids.
To address this issue, we provided two Structured Bid Writing (Fundamentals) courses. Although this course doesn’t cover all the modules from the Advanced course, delegates still looked at structuring, bid messages, engaging writing and thinking about their audience.
Client feedback
Delegates were asked to give a score out of five on a list of feedback questions such as ‘Quality of the training content’, ‘Quality of the trainer’ and ‘I have learnt new techniques that will enhance my writing’. The average score was 3.9 out of 5.
“The more structured method of writing will minimise time lost editing later.”
