About Adam Brown

I currently serve as Proposal Strategist in our Oil, Gas and Chemical business unit. In my role, I focus on renewable initiatives such as hydrogen utilization, carbon capture utilization and sequestration, and renewable fuels, among others. Prior to joining Burns & McDonnell, I served as a Senior Proposal Specialist for CBIZ MHM, LLC. In this role, I was responsible for the development of all sales proposals in the Kansas City market. I find it to be extremely rewarding to not only see the results, but to also support my colleagues and teammates. Before joining CBIZ MHM, I worked for ProEnergy Services. ProEnergy is a leading third-party solutions provider for the Power Generation and Oil & Gas industries. I was responsible for sales proposal development, contract management and the management of their Microsoft Dynamics Customer Relationship Management (CRM) sales tracking platform for two of their business units.Before joining CBIZ MHM and ProEnergy, I worked for ISS Facility Services, a commercial facility services organization. At ISS, I was responsible for sales proposal development, project management and the management of their Microsoft Dynamics CRM system nationwide.I’m truly passionate about my work and always eager to connect with people who share my experiences. While I enjoy all aspects of my job, I think my favorite stage of a project is working with the internal client or business unit leader to understand his or her business objectives. As we go through the process, it helps me understand their needs so I can accommodate them accordingly.I have a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Missouri-Columbia.I’m always interested in hearing from former colleagues, managers, Tiger fans or just interesting people, so feel free to contact me if you’d like to connect.Specialties: Proposal Development (RFPs), Project Management, Qualification Statements (RFIs), CRM Systems, Sales Support, Marketing, Presentation Development, Analytics, Report Generation, Forecasting, Contract Development, Market Research
