• Respond to post-proposal technical and commercial queries and update the proposal and estimate when required.
• Prepare booking and handover packages, communicate estimate basis, assumptions, risks, and commitments, and provide clarification support during project execution.
• Capture lessons learned and contribute to standardization, reusable content, estimating methods, and continuous improvement initiatives.

Solution Development & Estimation

• Develop proposals for TAS applications including truck, rail, marine, and pipeline loading or unloading; tank-farm automation; custody-transfer metering; additive injection; blending; inventory management; and terminal management systems.
• Develop proposals for Midstream applications including pipeline automation, pump stations, metering stations, RTU-based monitoring, and pipeline SCADA integration.
• Estimate ICSS scope including DCS, PLC, RTU, SCADA, ESD, remote I/O, Fire & Gas Systems, and third-party interfaces.
• Estimate TSI scope including CCTV, VMS, access and biometric control, PAGA, fire alarm, telecom infrastructure, LAN/WAN, ACS, fiber-optic networks, and integrated security management systems.
• Develop integrated architectures and interfaces across TAS, ICSS, TSI, central control rooms, enterprise systems, and third-party packages.

Cost Estimation & Engineering Deliverables

• Prepare cost estimates and BOQs for control systems, servers, workstations, networking, telecom, instrumentation, metering, tank gauging, valves, analyzers, field equipment, cabling, skids, and OEM packages.
• Estimate engineering, project management, FAT, SAT, installation supervision, commissioning, training, travel, documentation, logistics, taxes, and duties.
• Prepare and review instrument lists, I/O lists, assignment schedules, system and network architectures, security and telecom architectures, material take-offs, specifications, and technical proposal documents.
• Apply value engineering and cost optimization while preserving technical compliance, delivery feasibility, lifecycle value, and required margin.

Vendor, OEM & Commercial Support

• Identify third-party, buyout, and other-business-unit packages; prepare RFQs and technical inquiry packages.
• Obtain and evaluate technical and commercial offers for compliance, completeness, delivery, risk, and competitiveness.
• Support vendor selection, commercial comparisons, negotiation inputs, proposal risk assessment, and mitigation planning.

Key Deliverables

• Proposals and estimates captured in CPQ or approved estimating systems in accordance with SOPs.
• Complete technical and commercial proposals delivered within the stipulated schedule.
• Accurate and transparent cost estimates, BOQs, estimate basis, assumptions, exclusions, risks, and contingencies.
• Technically compliant and commercially competitive solutions, including optimized alternatives that improve customer value and proposal margin.
• Complete management-review and approval packages, including EGAP documentation where applicable.
• Complete booking and project handover packages following award.
