LinkedIn Top Leadership Voice I Supply Chain Director @ Petrofac | Procurement Leader for Oil & Gas Onshore, Offshore and New Energy Industry.
STRATEGIC PROCUREMENT The other day, my wife took me to a jewelry shop - Tanishq. She selected a piece of necklace, declared to the salesman that she wanted to buy only this piece (SINGLE SOURCE). She turned to me and said, “It’s your turn to finalize the deal.” She believes, as a procurement manager by profession, I can negotiate better in a jewelry shop as well. I failed miserably (LIMITED LEVERAGE). Gold prices are rising (FIXED MATERIAL COST), and they are fixed. The only leverage you have is over the making charges. I negotiated from 31% to 25%, moving the needle by AED 540 on the gold jewelry worth AED 42,300. She was disappointed. “You cannot negotiate. What do you do in the office?” I needed to explain to her, “dear, I do not do cheap bargaining. As part of my job, I decide what to buy, when to buy, where to buy, and how to buy.” Your role in procurement is just limited to CLERK / POSTMAN, if others in your team make decisions. Team work with no leverage to procurement does not help. Do you do strategic procurement or cheap bargaining? #procurement #supplychain

STRATEGIC PROCUREMENT !! The other day, my mother took me to a jewelry shop - GRT . She selected a piece of necklace, declared to the salesman that she wanted to buy only this piece (SINGLE SOURCE). She turned to me and said, “It’s your turn to finalize the deal.” She believes, as a procurement Guy by profession, I can negotiate better in a jewelry shop as well. I failed miserably (LIMITED LEVERAGE). Gold prices are rising (FIXED MATERIAL COST), and they are fixed. The only leverage you have is over the making charges. I negotiated from 25% to 20% and then finally to 18% She was disappointed. “You cannot negotiate. What do you do in the office?” I needed to explain to her, “I do not do cheap bargaining. As part of my job, I decide what to buy, when to buy, where to buy, and how to buy.” Do you do strategic procurement or cheap bargaining?

A very quick read bit worth it. It should always be about adding value.
Business and revenue model strategist for advertising agencies and other professional services firms
Remember, the job of professional buyers is not to select the agency, but rather to attempt to negotiate the lowest price from the agency that has already been selected by the economic buyer (the CMO). This means that you — as a professional seller — need to sharpen your skills when confronted with these predictable procurement ploys. Rather than passively reacting to what you’re asked or told in a negotiation, your job is to politely disrupt your client’s flawed buying process: https://bit.ly/47mGnsa

Senior Strategic Sourcing Manager at P&G | Product Supply Strategy Development | Strategic Sourcing & Negotiation | Sustainable Innovation | Project & Supplier Management | Supply Chain | Contract Development
Top advice for building a successful corporate career...
As a junior buyer, I got a LOT of advice. 99% of it was a waste of time. But this one piece of advice changed my career: “Choose your boss, over your job title or your company” When I started out at the Co-op, I had an awesome boss who - made work fun - set clear expectations - valued my perspective - prioritised my time over his - led by permission not authority - believed in me even when I didn't - said ‘well done’ and ‘thank you’ often Company culture, job titles, salaries, they're not unimportant. But there's only one factor that's really going to accelerate your career... The person who should want you to succeed the most.
