About Anne

Anne Taylor, 37 years old, purchasing and supply chain consultant

What if we challenged your purchasing to grow your performance?

With 15 years of experience, I support companies that want to professionalize their purchasing function, better manage their transformation, or simply regain control over their expenses. I combine a strategic, results-oriented approach with the ability to mobilize teams on the ground.

What I offer: rapid diagnostics, actionable roadmaps, clear operational management, and real support for your teams. I intervene in sourcing, transition projects, as well as in the PMO management of purchasing programs or the implementation of international centers of excellence.

Multisectoral, multicultural, and bilingual FR/EN, I have supported projects in heavy industry, pharma, services, transport, and intellectual property. My guiding principles: common sense, transparency, business impact.

My commitment: "I do what I say, I say what I do".
