A Snapshot of Your Day

As a Bidding Engineer, you start your day by analyzing new and ongoing tender documents to understand customer needs, which is crucial for creating competitive bids. You participate in meetings with the sales and project team to discuss ongoing projects and resource allocation, particularly within gas-insulated switchgear (GIS) where Siemens Energy holds a strong market position.

Customer contact is central: you clarify technical details and discuss specifications, especially regarding environmental requirements that fit Siemens Energy's Blue portfolio. You compile technical and commercial details for the bids and collaborate with technical experts to ensure all requirements are met.

You also have procurement meetings with suppliers to discuss prices and delivery times, which are crucial for cost efficiency. Before the bid is sent, you review it carefully and make adjustments, as well as sending it for final review by your manager.

Your day ends with a summary of progress and planning for the next day, while you, satisfied with the day's productivity, send a few last emails before shutting down your computer.

Siemens Energy Grid Solutions is a world-leading OEM supplier with a strong focus on supporting our customers in reducing their emissions through the sale of environmentally classified products in high voltage. We have a well-developed portfolio that in the coming years will cover all voltage levels. In Sweden, we are currently focusing heavily on our Gas Insulated Switchgear (GIS), as we are the only European supplier with products that fully comply with the upcoming EU regulations for F-gases and PFAS.
