Megan Contreras
@megancontreras
I lead logistics, procurement, and supply chain operations, improving inventory accuracy, reducing costs, and ensuring audit-ready readiness.
What I'm looking for
I’m a results-driven logistics, procurement, supply chain, and inventory management professional with 20 years of experience leading transportation, sourcing, materials management, asset accountability, and operational planning in high-demand environments. I’ve overseen end-to-end logistics operations supporting more than 4,000 personnel across domestic and international environments, directing supply planning, purchasing, transportation, warehousing, distribution, and asset accountability while maintaining operational readiness, compliance, and time-sensitive execution.
My record includes managing over $25M in equipment and supplies with 100% accountability and zero losses during audits and inspections. I’ve increased inventory accuracy by 40%, reduced excess stock and waste by 20%, cut order-to-delivery lead times by 30%, and reduced procurement costs by 15% through vendor negotiations and disciplined purchasing practices. I lead and train cross-functional teams, manage risk and logistics disruptions, and use ERP and reporting to drive data-driven decision-making—along with a transition from military logistics to civilian operations, backed by process improvement and lean efficiency.
