He and his team of business development ‘pricers’ work closely with bid teams and sales colleagues to help construct deals. Rhymes joined Dell from UBS six years ago. At the time, clarity on deals, win rates and profitability was lacking or inconsistent. “We did not have a clear view of our pipeline of opportunities. We did not have a view of what deals we had sold, from a budgetary perspective, and we did not have a view of deal P&Ls, i.e. which deals were making money and how they were being tracked.” Rhymes’ team now works with Dell’s consulting and managed services organisation on the financial aspects of high-value deals. The Senior Management is now interested in carrying out a competitor analysis and wants you to present a Report.
