@ranibarman
I build procurement intelligence, market research, and automated analytics for public-sector, aerospace, and commercial decisions.
What I'm looking for
I've delivered market research, category intelligence, and procurement analytics for Public Spend Forum clients including AWS, Raytheon, Mondelēz International, and NASA. I turn supplier, market, pricing, and competitive data into sourcing and growth decisions.
In my current Category Manager role, I lead Agile research engagements, supplier due diligence, regional trade research, and category analysis. I build Tableau and Power BI dashboards, optimize Snowflake queries, and apply AI/ML classification and clustering to reveal vendor risks, portfolio gaps, and demand opportunities.
Previously, I processed 1TB+ datasets for aerospace benchmarking, segmented 500+ suppliers by risk profile, and helped build a 1M+ partner database that reduced discovery time by 30%. I also develop SOPs, automated data-quality workflows, Oracle SQL/PLSQL solutions, and data pipelines that improved accuracy by 25%.
