My Specialties
Proposal Help for OEMs
OEMs should never have to forgo sales opportunities for lack of manpower to generate proposals. I understand what it takes to respond to customer RFPs and create winning proposals. I’m expert at;
Attending bidder’s conferences and site tours
Doing conceptual design and applications engineering
Creating narratives, scope descriptions, schedules, and comments/exceptions for your proposal
Managing your entire proposal effort
I’ve helped companies like Caterpillar and Solar Turbines create hundreds of equipment and turnkey proposals for their customers.
Ocean-Based Power
I know power, I know the ocean and I know what stakeholders like commercial fishermen care about. Let me bring this unique skill set to bear on your offshore wind or wave power project.
I’m a mariner and an ocean educator. I’ve taught seamanship, navigation and oceanography for over a decade under the banner of my other company, Ocean Coach. CLICK HERE to learn more about Ocean Coach.
I’ve also served on fisheries and marine reserve advisory boards, juggling stakeholder needs. I understand the concerns of fishermen, beachgoers and coastal residents.
Operations Audits & Due Diligence
It's tough to troubleshoot an underperforming power plant when you’re so close to the problem, and you have to deal with internal politics.
Sometimes an outside eye can best determine a root cause whether it’s equipment, management, maintenance or personnel conflict.
Whether an Operations Audit or a Due Diligence Review, I listen closely, observe keenly, and draw on over 30 years of power plant experience.
I’ll deliver a tight 5-page report that identifies the root cause(s) and proposed fixes in plain language.
