Working with internal stakeholders, I was able to put together a comprehensive sourcing plan by analyzing the supply chain needs, reviewing factory capabilities, and consolidating the factory and country base to meet the company's objectives. The strategic sourcing plan helped the organization achieve a cost-effective supply chain and ensured that the organization's objectives were met efficiently.Working closely with strategic suppliers negotiated a yearly raw material buy that supported the supplier's need for volume forecasts and companies need for consistent monthly materials. This initiative saved the company 100k in raw material costs. Implemented a "ship on time, ship complete" program with the global factories, which saved 300k in late delivery chargebacks. The program ensured that the company's products were delivered on time and in full, which contributed to the organization's success.
