About Guillaume

Do you run an SME with 50 to 200 employees and your purchasing is still based on informal practices?
No formalized procedures, verbally approved orders, unevaluated suppliers... this is a real legal and financial risk.

After 5 years managing purchasing portfolios of €10M to €30M at Capgemini, Guerlain, and Deret Logistique, I now support SMEs in the Paris region in structuring and securing their purchasing.

What I offer:
🔍 Purchasing Diagnosis (1 day — €900): audit of your practices, risk identification, personalized roadmap
📄 Structuring & Reference Documents: procedures, approval levels, templates, framework agreements — invoiced per deliverable
📬 Purchasing Compliance Newsletter (€70/month): stay informed of regulatory changes without spending hours on it

My areas of expertise: contractual compliance, supplier referencing, risk matrices, purchasing GDPR, calls for tender, SLA/KPI.

Want to know the status of your purchasing? Send me a message.
