Twelve pages that made a complex technical proposal clear to senior decision-makers.

Original materials are confidential. I’m happy to walk through the work in conversation.

CONTEXT & CHALLENGE

In 2019, KBR pursued a PMC/EPCM role for a global petrochemical company. The executive summary, approximately 12 fully designed pages, needed to distill a large technical proposal into a clear and persuasive narrative for senior decision-makers.

It had to communicate KBR’s proposed approach without overwhelming the audience with technical detail while supporting both the formal submission and the client presentation.

WHAT I LED

As the primary designer, I had full creative autonomy from concept through final execution. Working directly with KBR executives and account managers, I established the visual strategy, information hierarchy, page system and infographic approach.

I translated dense technical content into an executive-level narrative, using strategic layouts, typography and custom infographics to emphasize key messages and guide decision-makers through the proposal.

IMPACT
~$850M
project secured for KBR’s consultancy services
Up to $120M
in additional work offered at selection
Credited
by KBR leadership as a key part of the win

KBR was selected to provide project-management consultancy services for a project valued at approximately $850 million. At selection, the client also offered up to $120 million in additional engineering and facility work. In announcing the win internally, KBR leadership credited the global marketing team as a big part of the win.

The outcome shows how focused creative strategy and executive-level information design can strengthen high-value business development.
