Post What Is a Procurement Consultant?
hello
]A procurement consultant is someone who has extensive experience in procurement or purchasing. There are four areas of focus for procurement consultants: procurement system installation, business process review, strategic procurement advice, and procurement training. Procurement consultants can work for large consulting firms or open their own practice. The vast majority of consultants are industry specific, building on a network of business contacts and experience within a specific industry. For example, a procurement specialist with experience in public sector very rarely works as a consultant in the manufacturing sector.


Well-developed people and negotiation skills are important in this type of work. In a consultant role, it is important to provide advice and guidance in a way that can be easily accepted and implemented. A great deal of business for a procurement consultant is based on referrals, so it is critical to build a good, solid reputation.
thanks
