About Vijit Verma

Increasingly, bids and proposals are becoming an essential requirement for organisations to conduct business successfully and fairly, particularly in the public sector, where transactions have to be transparent and auditable. A bid allows companies to openly compete for work. The bid not only allows companies to compete on an equal playing field but also allows the client to have a full understanding of the service and commitment they are going to receive.A bid can take on many forms. It can be as simple as a bid for an item on Amazon, it can be a face to face negotiation at a market stall, or it can be an explanation or proposal, in document form, of the services or products offered at an estimated cost to a company. The most important thing to remember is that there are many interchangeable terms that describe a bid. They include: Proposal; RFP; Tender; Pursuit; Campaign; Submission; RFI; PQQ; RFQ; Grant Submission; Pitch; and many more.Myself, A Senior Presales Professional having 9+ years of experience in handling end to end Presales activities such as - Communicating with customers to identify their buying needs and goals, developed various sales collaterals, and worked on Presales technical presentations/demos-Performing Market Analysis, worked closely with sales/product team, and provided beneficial presales support & services, ensuring all time industry standard proposals- Preparing Sales Proposals and participated in team meetings with managers, product teams and discussed on various proposals outputs- Creating defense presentations for sales team, working on SoW’s, Helping Sales Team to prepare for Demo\'s- Working with Product Management to provide feedback on issues with current products and provide input around new products.** Apart from Presales work, also indulged in Business Analysis work such as Requirement Gathering, Creating User Stories, Wireframes, Creating high level Test cases & doing Business Validations.
