About Pierre Alexandre

I help companies structure and optimize their purchasing through strategic sourcing, tender management, and supplier negotiation.

Specialized buyer in procurement and indirect purchasing, I am involved in the entire purchasing cycle: defining needs, supplier sourcing, managing tenders, analyzing offers, contractual negotiation, and monitoring supplier performance.

Graduated with a Master's in International Purchasing (MAI) from KEDGE Business School, I have gained experience in large group environments, notably at BNP Paribas, where I managed purchasing consultations for services and work environments (facility management, general services, intellectual services). 

Types of missions I can undertake:
• Strategic sourcing and identification of new suppliers
• Tender management (RFI / RFQ / RFP)
• Analysis and comparison of supplier offers
• Commercial and contractual negotiation
• Management and monitoring of supplier relationships (SRM)
• Monitoring of supplier performance (cost, quality, deadlines, service)
• Purchasing analysis and reporting (Excel, Power BI, SAP)
• Support for business teams in structuring purchasing processes

My added value:
• Operational and strategic vision of the purchasing cycle
• Ability to secure purchasing decisions and optimize costs
• Experience in coordination with business, finance, and legal teams
• Data-driven approach for analysis and monitoring of supplier performance
