About Linda

With over 20 years of experience, I support small and medium-sized businesses in structuring and optimizing their purchasing processes for greater efficiency, visibility, and consistency.

Triple expertise: admin, purchasing, and analytics

I design and implement processes adapted to each structure:
• Purchasing mapping and needs analysis
• Tenders and supplier selection
• Implementation of purchasing policies and internal procedures
• Administrative optimization and budget monitoring

My approach is both strategic and operational, with a constant focus on rigor, clarity, and simplicity.

Author of the "Practical Guide to Purchasing," I make the purchasing function accessible and useful to all structures, even the smallest.

Based in Houston, Texas, I work remotely with clients in France, Canada, and the United States.

Linda is a great asset! She quickly grasps the client company's issues and successfully completes her assignments. She worked in my team for several months as an indirect purchasing consultant. Linda is conscientious, diligent, and assiduous. I recommend Linda without hesitation.
