What I handle.

Services Procurement

I source, qualify, and manage the contractors and service providers your projects depend on. From initial identification through contract execution, I handle the full procurement cycle - so your project team gets the right people on site, at the right price, when they need them. No scrambling for quotes at the last minute. No awarding work to whoever picks up the phone first.

Contract Management

Contracts are where most companies lose margin without knowing it. Rate escalations buried in amendments. Billing errors that compound month after month. Blanket POs that haven't been reconciled in over a year. I review, negotiate, and administer your agreements - so every dollar billed is a dollar that was actually earned.

Vendor Evaluation & Qualification

Not all vendors are created equal. I assess capability, compliance, safety records, financial stability, and pricing to build you a qualified vendor list you can actually trust. Then I track performance over time - so you're not just hoping your vendors deliver, you know they will. When a vendor isn't meeting the bar, you'll hear about it before it becomes a project problem.

Spend Analysis & Reporting

You can't cut costs you can't see. I categorize and analyze your contractor spend, showing exactly where the money is going and where the savings are hiding. My analysis goes deeper than manual spreadsheet reviews - AI tools identify patterns, outliers, and opportunities that would otherwise stay buried in your AP data. Monthly reports on your desk, not year-end surprises.

RFX Management

From scope development through bid evaluation to contract award, I manage your competitive bidding process end to end. Clear specifications. Structured evaluations. Documented decisions. Whether it's a $50K service contract or a multi-million dollar turnaround scope, I run the process so you get better pricing and defensible award decisions.

Contractor Compliance Tracking

COR, ISN, WCB, Avetta, ISNetworld, ComplyWorks, ContractorCheck - compliance requirements keep multiplying, and missing one can shut down a job site or void your insurance. I track and manage your contractor compliance across every platform your clients and regulators require, so nothing falls through the cracks and you're never caught off guard during an audit.

Invoice Review & Validation

Every invoice gets reviewed against contracted rates, purchase orders, and field-verified receipts before it reaches your AP department. Three-way matching, change order verification, duplicate detection, and vendor dispute resolution - you only pay for work that was actually delivered, at the rate that was actually agreed. AI tools catch the patterns that humans miss at scale.

Two industries. Deep focus.

I don't try to be everything to everyone. I focus on two industries where procurement makes or breaks the bottom line.

Oil & Gas

Western Canada's energy sector runs on contracted services. Whether you're a SAGD operator, midstream company, or oilfield service provider - I know the work because I've done the work.

MSA & rate schedule negotiation · Field ticket reconciliation · Turnaround scoping · Vendor compliance · Long-lead procurement · Change orders · Quarterly business reviews · Indigenous & local content tracking

Construction

Construction procurement is fast-paced and unforgiving. If you're a GC, ICI builder, or industrial constructor in Alberta - I know the pressure and I know the process.

Bid package development · Sub-trade prequalification · Contract buyout · Material submittal expediting · Sub-trade performance management · Change order negotiation · Progress claim validation · CCDC contract administration

15 years of experience. Amplified by AI.

I use AI tools to handle the grunt work - I handle the judgment calls. That's the difference between software and a procurement specialist who knows your industry.

AI handles what should be automated. Invoice matching, spend categorization, contract deadline tracking, compliance monitoring - done in minutes instead of hours. Your project stays on track because the detail work doesn't pile up.

Deeper analysis, faster. AI-powered spend analysis spots patterns humans miss - rate creep across vendors, duplicate contracts, compliance gaps. I review 100 invoices with the same attention I'd give 10.

Relationships still run on trust. AI can't negotiate a rate reduction over coffee. Supplier relationships, contract negotiations, and the judgment calls that save you real money - that's still me, with 15 years of doing exactly this.
