Case Study Two

Leading the procurement efforts for a global aerospace and commercial manufacturer, strategic expertise was paramount. The key steps involved developing and deploying comprehensive global and regional strategies in Maintenance, Repair, and Operations (MRO). With an annual purchasing volume exceeding $600 million, the focus was on optimizing procurement processes and negotiating impactful contracts.

The procurement team, under strategic guidance, engaged in robust supplier negotiations, securing agreements that not only met operational needs but also guaranteed substantial savings commitments. These agreements were carefully structured to align with company’s goals, ensuring a symbiotic relationship between cost-effectiveness and high-quality MRO services. The result was a remarkable achievement of generating savings exceeding $75 million annually, underscoring the success of the 45,000 person procurement team in driving strategic procurement initiatives within the complex and dynamic aerospace industry.
