I’m an experienced procurement professional. I received my CPM from the NAPM (ISM) in 1994.I have over 30 years direct responsibility for purchasing/planning assigned products, supplies, services, and equipment to meet/exceed established standards for price, delivery and quality. I have always been focused on developing supply plans and commodity strategies for each product category under my charge.I have developed the procurement skills to identify, develop, and implement opportunities to leverage expenditures and streamline processes in order to reduce total cost of procurement. I always treat my suppliers fairly but at the same time I tenaciously fight to meet my company’s supply objectives.Based on my annual performance assessment I’ve been a proven high performer in all aspects of procurement for at least the last 20 years.I’ve always been willing to take on tough assignments and work as long and hard as it takes to complete projects on time. My greatest successes have come when I’ve challenged the conventional approach to issues & problems.I’m results oriented with a strong drive to exceed expectations.Specialties: Software Implementation Projects.Skilled Negotiator.Best Practices Strategic Sourcing.
