At TATA Projects Ltd, I lead procurement of materials, subcontracts, and services, from supplier pre-qualification through purchase orders and work contracts. I develop alternative sourcing strategies and support procurement for MRO, CSD, and residential infrastructure projects.

Across projects at GreenplySpeciality Panels Pvt. Ltd., Oberoi Realty Ltd., and other employers, I handled MEP and CAPEX procurement, vendor development, and contract negotiations. At JMC Projects (India) Ltd – Kalpataru Group, I reduced CAPEX/OPEX costs by developing local vendors and sourcing alternatives.
