Rakesh Ranjan
@rakeshranjan1
I drive strategic sourcing, supplier negotiations, and procurement automation across aerospace, defence, and industrial manufacturing.
What I'm looking for
At Genpact, I support sourcing and procurement for aerospace engine manufacturing, industrial automation, and building systems accounts. I've delivered 20–25% cost savings through TCO analysis, competitive bidding, and long-term agreement negotiations, while reducing aged PO backlog by roughly 80%.
Previously at Bharat Electronics and Elecon Engineering, I owned RFQ-to-PO and procure-to-pay execution across defence and industrial manufacturing. I use SAP, Power BI, Excel VBA, Power Automate, SQL, and Python to improve reporting, supplier performance, compliance, and delivery outcomes.
