Corely -Intelligent Contract Management, so that contracts are understood and remembered.

I listen to people about their Source2Pay challenges and help them solve them if they want to.

- Supplier Management done in Excel, (maybe no TPRM, Supplier Due Diligence, KYS)
- RFx sourcing processes that are slow and bore you and your suppliers
- Contract Management hidden away in a folder 
- Procurement without control
- P2P processes with manual efforts and lacking PO's
- GRC and ESG being an after thought that keeps you awake.
- Analysing their spend

I'm supported by a highly experienced and talented team fully focused S2P processes and systems - what system is preferred, how should it be designed, what's the change management, what's a best of breed implementation, and does it help your strategic goal of making procurement a business enabler?

If you want to hear about what's possible, give me a shout. +4474 8454 7825
