Procurement, Product Development & Operations Support I work as a hands-on procurement and operations partner for growing companies that need structure, stronger contracts, and better control over spending and execution. I don’t just place purchase orders. I negotiate terms, manage suppliers, support product launches, improve operational flow, and build systems that scale. Results I’ve Delivered $8.06M in revenue generated (2025) $2.493M in cost savings secured $8.384M in purchase terms negotiated $251M+ in contracts managed What I Actually Do End-to-end supply chain management Product sourcing and supplier development New product development support (from concept to vendor onboarding) Operational process improvement Vendor vetting and global sourcing Contract and pricing negotiation E-commerce fulfillment and 3PL coordination ERP and purchasing system optimization Government contracting and subcontractor sourcing When product development, procurement, and operations aren’t aligned, margins shrink and timelines slip. I bring those pieces together. Industries I’ve Supported -CPG -Pets -Commercial Real Estate -Manufacturing -Textiles -Electronics -Wellness & Consumer Products -E-Commerce -Government Contracting I’ve worked with both established companies and fast-growing brands. The common thread is this: when operations lack structure, it costs money. I step in and fix that. Who I’m a Good Fit For Founders launching or scaling products Operations teams that need procurement leadership Brands preparing for retail or Amazon growth Companies entering government contracts Teams that need someone to own both sourcing and execution If you want someone who can handle procurement, product development, and operations as a whole system, let’s talk.

Hi my name is Rob and I am a Procurement & Supply Chain Consultant with 20+ years of experience helping companies source products and services, reduce costs, manage suppliers, coordinate logistics, and improve supply chain performance. Throughout my career, I have sourced $17MM+ in domestic and international products and services, reviewed $500MM+ in global procurement spend, and delivered 5–25% cost reductions through supplier evaluations, competitive bid analysis, contract negotiations, and strategic sourcing initiatives. I have supported industrial, manufacturing, construction, disaster recovery, eCommerce, private-label, logistics, and service-based procurement projects. I can help your business with supplier discovery, RFQs/RFPs, product sourcing, service sourcing, vendor qualification, cost benchmarking, spend analysis, logistics coordination, 3PL research, drop-ship models, contract terms, MOQ negotiations, and procurement strategy. My background includes leading procurement, logistics, and materials management for multi-site construction projects, implementing material management systems for large-scale projects, supporting U.S. Virgin Islands disaster recovery programs, and forming supplier alliances that generated measurable cost savings. I also use AI-enabled research and market intelligence tools to accelerate supplier discovery, compare vendors, assess risk, and provide faster, more informed sourcing recommendations. Whether you need help finding a manufacturer, comparing supplier quotes, reducing procurement costs, coordinating logistics, or building a more reliable supply chain, I can provide hands-on support from research through execution. Message me if you need a procurement professional who can combine strategic sourcing experience, practical execution, and data-driven decision-making to help your business save time, reduce costs, and improve supplier performance.
