Spend control Supplier performance Procurement systems
100+ active orders a month
7+ years end-to-end procurement
I lead complex, multi-site procurement where cost control, supplier performance and supply continuity matter. With 7+ years across procurement, operations and consulting, I manage high-value capital equipment, tenders, contracts and supplier risk.
Backed by a BCom in Accounting and Finance, I bring a financial approach to sourcing and spend control. I also build procurement systems that give management clear visibility of orders, suppliers, contracts and risk.
4,000+
operational sites supported through multi-site procurement
1,300+
hospitals and clinics supplied with capital equipment
6
provinces managed simultaneously
5
countries supported through local and cross-border supply chains
What I deliver
Commercial control, reliable supply and clear management visibility across complex procurement operations.
-
Commercial and procurement leadership
I use spend analysis, market pricing, supplier benchmarking and operational requirements to make stronger sourcing decisions. At Finara Consulting, I identified multi-million-rand cost optimisation opportunities for mining-related, heavy-industry and logistics clients.
-
Procurement governance and spend control
I design approval pathways, procurement policies, contract registers and compliance checks that strengthen control over spend. At Clinipro, I introduced written motivations and approval controls across hundreds of millions in expenditure.
-
Strategic sourcing and tender management
I manage sourcing from requirements through tendering, evaluation, negotiation and contract award. My experience includes capital equipment and specialised machinery, with local and international supplier negotiations supported by pricing analysis and benchmarking.
-
Supplier performance and contract management
I hold suppliers accountable through scorecards, SLA monitoring, contract registers and formal corrective action. I review supplier concentration risk and strengthen due diligence so contract commitments translate into reliable supply.
-
Multi-site and operational procurement
I coordinate head office and site requirements where a supply failure affects multiple operations. At Click Learning, I manage procurement supporting 4,000+ sites across four provinces and 100+ active orders each month. Earlier roles covered 1,300+ healthcare facilities and five-country supply chains.
-
Procurement risk, compliance and B-BBEE
I build supplier due diligence, conflict-of-interest checks, competitive sourcing and approval controls into the procurement cycle. B-BBEE and preferential procurement tracking, budget monitoring and 3-way invoice matching support compliance and audit-ready records.
-
Procurement systems and automation
I build order trackers, supplier scorecards, contract reporting and spend dashboards that replace manual chasing, so management decides on current figures, not last month's report.
Systems I build
Procurement tools built around real operations.
I build practical systems to control orders, suppliers, spend and risk. These demonstrations use fictional information because the original systems contain employer and supplier data.
Tracks each request through approval, purchase order, delivery, invoice matching and payment. Late orders and matching exceptions are flagged so the team can act early. Open an order to see its full trail.
