I am currently competing with colleague in the WA office for our company. I am one of two people (with my colleague included) being considered for a major promotion from senior engineer to senior manager, which results in a large pay increase and more responsibilities.

I frequently out-preform my colleague, but the promotion has a requirement that the individual be required to be available to work extra hours per week. I am able to put in up to 50 hours per week (which I often do, to get ahead) but the other colleague competing for this role can put in more than 110 hours per week (as he is a single male, and has no other responsibilities).

I regularly outperform him, and can do more in 40 hours than he can do in 60. However, my employer is looking just at how many human-hours the candidate can produce per quarter. How can I convince my supervisors to consider efficiency and how I can become better than my colleague (in terms of work done per week) given more time (and maybe a better daycare arrangement for me)?
