I'm offering
Through a broad variety of Public and Private Sector Roles, I have gained extensive experience in Category and Supplier Management. This has included Supplier Selection and Life-Cycle Management using OJEU, Competitive Dialogue, Single and Competitive Tender Processes.
The typical spend in these roles has been between £3m and £30m p.a. Categories have varied in scope and complexity from Strategic Critical, to Tactical Acquisition Categories. My focus in all cases has been, to obtain the optimum blend of Price, Quality and Functionality.
During my assignments, I have taken the opportunity to deliver innovation and business improvement. This approach has led to the successful delivery of the key projects and transformation programmes for stakeholders.
My preferred style is, to begin the review of the opportunity/category with the engagement of the Stakeholder Community to collate business justification, stakeholder needs, expectations and expenditure. Working from this base, I am able to engage with the Stakeholder Team(s) to understand their particular priorities and to present the market capacity and capabilities.
