Description
Leidos’ Health Solutions BD organization is looking for a highly motivated individual to fill the Capture Excellence SME position. This position is responsible for supporting Health Solutions’ priority captures across the Leidos Win Plan, Leidos’ methodology for qualifying, pursuing and winning business. This support increases the PWin of opportunities, increases capture quality by facilitating workshops, and increases efficiencies.
Capture Excellence SMEs are assigned to coach the capture managers across Health Solutions priority captures. They work hands on with the capture manager and the capture team to develop win strategies, win themes, executive summaries, solution strategies, and eventual winning proposals.

The main activity for the Capture Excellence SME is the facilitation of capture workshops during the Win Plan. Capture Excellence SMEs are not passive participants in the Win Plan process: as a facilitator, they lead the team in the brainstorming activities that ultimately result in the story, strategy and themes that will discriminate Leidos. Capture Excellence SMEs utilize facilitation skills that are part science and part art to challenge capture teams and pull the winning information from workshop participants.
