Context

An international EPC-led consortium pursued a high-profile Saudi infrastructure PPP — competing against three other shortlisted consortia in a tightly-scored evaluation.

Challenge

The financial bid was the single largest evaluation factor. The consortium needed a financial proposal that was both competitively-priced and lender-fundable — a combination that had historically eliminated competing bidders.

Our Approach

  • Full bid-document deconstruction and risk-allocation map.
  • Sponsor-side bid model — lender-grade, fully sensitised, with optimized financing structure.
  • Risk register with priced mitigation, supporting an aggressive yet defensible bid price.
  • Coordination with legal, tax, and lender advisors through to financial close.

Outcome

The consortium was awarded the project. Financial close was achieved with full lender commitment at the originally bid pricing.
