FF&E Procurement & Strategic Sourcing
Procurement structured around clarity, transparency and delivery.
I manage procurement as a project discipline rather than a purchasing function.
The objective is not simply to obtain quotations.
It is to ensure that the right product, supplier, specification, commercial scope and delivery strategy are aligned before commitment.
Scope may include
- FF&E
- OS&E
- Bespoke furniture
- Bespoke joinery
- Decorative lighting
- Stone
- Metalwork
- Upholstery
- Textiles
- Fit-out materials
- Specialist fabrication
Services may include
- Procurement strategy
- Package planning
- Supplier sourcing
- Manufacturer research
- RFQ development
- Quotation management
- Bid levelling
- Supplier evaluation
- Commercial negotiation
- Award recommendations
- Order coordination
- Sample and finish coordination
- Production monitoring
- Factory visits
- Lead-time tracking
- Logistics planning
- Delivery sequencing
- Installation coordination
Project-Specific Specialist Sourcing
Sometimes the missing resource is not a product.
It is the right specialist capability.
Where required, I can research and identify appropriate project resources including:
- Interior designers
- Specialist architects
- Technical consultants
- Manufacturers
- Bespoke fabricators
- Specialist joiners
- Stone suppliers
- Metalwork suppliers
- Upholstery workshops
- Lighting specialists
- Local subcontractors
- Inspection specialists
- Certification specialists
- Project-specific technical resources
This is not recruitment. It is targeted project sourcing based on the needs of the assignment.
Discuss the project.
A first conversation is enough to understand where procurement structure would add the most value.
