Our Services

Our services include the provision of Capture Directors, Bid Managers, Commercial and Supply Chain Managers, Finance Managers, Bid Writers and Portfolio, Programme and Project Managers.

Oasisairbridge provides a full range of business winning services to our clients. On strategically important, complex or ‘must win’ opportunities we deploy into the bid as a team where we take the lead in capturing business from concept to closure, sometimes providing transition and mobilising capability on opportunities which have been successful.

We have experience in winning business in the following countries: United Kingdom, Australia, Papua New Guinea, Pacific Islands, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, UAE, South Africa, Egypt, Greece, Brazil, Thailand, USA, Central and Eastern Europe, Africa, South Korea, Indonesia, Canada, Libya, Hong Kong, Philippines and Japan.

Our Business Winning experience includes export finance (setting up letters of credit and international banking arrangements as well as performance bonds and bank bonds), advice on anti-bribery and corruption, negotiation, incoterms, offset, payment insurance and working with advisors and distributors. Please see our Commercial Business Guide Book for further information.

We specialise in large value opportunities, typically for bids in excess of £1bn into the UK MOD where there is a need for extended supply chains and partners. However we have also secured smaller opportunities for our clients which are strategically important.

Almost every opportunity we have been successful in securing for our clients has been achieved through Oasisairbridge taking a different or varied approach from that suggested by our client at the outset of the bid. We are able to do this due to our commercial bidding experience and our deep understanding of how to cost, price and commercially structure a deal which satisfies and exceeds the end customer needs.

Our team is made up of full time employees and associate members. We are a community that engage regularly and offer ‘back office’ support to our teams when they are on deployment with our clients.
