  • Project experience working for F500 clients advising on large software contracts with big suppliers, Microsoft, SAP, Oracle, etc., is highly valued.
  • Technical proficiency with spend assessments and visibility tools to scope opportunity assessments, e.g., create spend assessments, establish baseline spend, and calculate realized savings from sourcing events.
