Category management
Fixed plant / Fleet / Consumables
Structured sourcing and category strategy across the spend base. Spend consolidated, leakage closed, contracts written to hold.
Procurement that holds under load
Source-to-contract strategies for mining operations. Stronger supply continuity, lower total cost of ownership, and contractor performance you can hold to a number.
Transforming procurement into strategic advantage: outcome‑driven delivery, with a disciplined balance of process and practicality.
What that has been worth
01
$1.2M+
Delivered in annual savings
Structured sourcing and category management applied across the spend base, with the savings held rather than handed back at the next renewal.
02
$980K
Cut from project costs
Capital packages re-scoped and re-tendered against real benchmarks, taking cost out before the contract was signed rather than after.
03
69%
Reduction in equipment costs
Supplier consolidation and optimised agreements on a single equipment category, tested against incumbents on total cost of ownership.
What we actually do
Strategic sourcing
Tendering / Market testing
Tender management end to end: market approach, evaluation, negotiation and award, with emerging markets tested on real benchmarks.
Contract management
Availability / MTBF / MTTR
Performance-based contracts that tie payment to availability, with supplier selection aimed squarely at reducing downtime.
Supply risk
Segmentation / Dual sourcing
Governance that holds continuity when markets tighten, with acquisition planning that frees capital without starving operations.
Twenty years on the owner's side
Owner’s team and EPCM
Both sides of the contract, so the commercial position is understood before it is argued.
S2C, P2P and PMO
One integrated model rather than three disconnected functions handing work between them.
$2m to $200m+
Capital procurement led at package level, from single purchases to major shutdowns.
FEED, QS and HSE
Delivered through established engineering partners when a package calls for it.
Procurement is not paperwork. Done properly it is the lever that protects margin and keeps the plant running.
