Establish Procurement Team

Peter was engaged as the result of the recommendations that came from a structured Procurement Capability Review, The objectives of this engagement were to

  • identify savings and process efficiencies during a time of significant organizational change; and
  • to establish a specialist in-house procurement function.

A team of four was established and improved the supply or performance management of contracts for all major areas of spend.

An awareness of the value that the procurement function could deliver was established throughout the business very quickly. The pragmatism and clear thinking that was applied contributed significantly to the successful delivery of an number of large strategic sourcing initiatives
