Overview

With 20+ years of global experience working within IT Procurement and Operations, I can deliver significant functional and commercial benefit to my clients irrespective of the size of the spend. I have extensive experience with SAP/Oracle/IBM and can help organizations overcome any form of licensing/SAAS issues. In addition, my extensive experience within the Telco industry provides value to those looking to review and restructure their WAN costs. VAR restructuring/strategies, Spend Analytics, Catalogue Implementations and even P2P/ vendor management system design are additional areas where I can provide value to clients.
