Géraud Boursin, Head of new Bids development division

Effective 1 September, the Development division will be split into two separate entities:

  • A Strategy and Business Relations division headed by Alain Polonsky, currently development director
  • A Bids development division headed by Géraud Boursin, who will be joining RATP Dev for this purpose.

The Strategy and Business Relations division will be tasked with strategic thinking and a dynamic market approach along with transversal partnership approaches and direct sales actions.

The Bids development division will directly produce bids for tenders in complex offers and will support local teams when they develop bids in response to tenders. The division will include project directors and managers as well as business analysts.

Both division directors will be members of the RATP Dev executive committee.
