Technical Procurement Specialist | Maintenance Planner | IBM Maximo CMMS Expert I am an Electrical Maintenance Engineer with 13+ years of international experience supporting technical procurement, maintenance planning, and asset management across power generation, refining, and oil & gas industries. My expertise combines engineering knowledge with procurement support, enabling me to evaluate technical requirements, verify material specifications, review supplier quotations, and support procurement activities for critical industrial maintenance operations. For more than six years with Kuwait Oil Company, I worked closely with maintenance and procurement teams to support the maintenance of four Oil Gathering Stations. My responsibilities included preparing RFQs, conducting technical bid evaluations, reviewing supplier quotations, verifying material specifications, supporting material approvals, coordinating procurement activities, and helping ensure that purchased materials met engineering and operational requirements. I also supported inventory planning, spare parts management, catalog development, and material criticality assessments to improve maintenance reliability and material availability. I have extensive hands-on experience using IBM Maximo CMMS for preventive maintenance planning, work order management, Job Plans, Item Master, inventory management, material requisitions (DTR), catalog management, maintenance reporting, and asset management. My experience with enterprise maintenance systems allows me to quickly adapt to other CMMS and purchasing platforms. In my current remote engineering support role, I provide daily technical support to a Chief Engineer by reviewing material requests, evaluating maintenance materials, reviewing contractor submissions, supporting Management of Change (MOC) reviews, preparing engineering documentation, and assisting maintenance and procurement teams with technical evaluations and engineering coordination. My background in electrical maintenance enables me to evaluate purchased materials not only from a procurement perspective but also for technical compliance, equipment compatibility, maintainability, reliability, and operational suitability. I am proficient in Microsoft Excel, Word, PowerPoint, Outlook, IBM Maximo CMMS, and technical documentation, with strong analytical, communication, and problem-solving skills developed through years of supporting multidisciplinary engineering and maintenance teams.

Hi, I’m Subhasis — a Project Management, Market Research, and Sourcing specialist focused on helping businesses find reliable solutions, save time, reduce costs, and move projects forward with confidence. For more than 15 years, I’ve supported clients across the USA, Europe, Asia, Australia, and other international markets with research, sourcing, business analysis, project coordination, and virtual assistance. With three hundred plus completed projects, the goal has always been the same: understand the real business need, handle the details carefully, and deliver practical results on time. Whether you need to find reliable suppliers, research a market, verify information, analyze business opportunities, coordinate a complex project, or take repetitive tasks off your plate, I can provide structured and dependable support from start to finish. Clients value my attention to detail, clear English communication, responsiveness, and ability to work independently while keeping projects organized and on schedule. Instead of simply completing assigned tasks, I focus on understanding the problem behind the task and finding the most practical way to solve it. If you need a reliable professional who can take ownership of your research, sourcing, or project support requirements and deliver without constant supervision, let’s discuss what needs to be accomplished.
