Tarun Kumar

I’m a procurement analytics professional with 2.5 years at the intersection of data engineering and sourcing strategy. At Nextpower, I built Power BI systems and used SQL to support supplier negotiations, delivering a 7% cost reduction and an 18% traceability gain across procurement and commercial operations.

In my current role, I’ve built and maintained 25+ production Power BI dashboards for procurement KPI monitoring, sourcing performance analytics, and operational decision-making. I engineered semantic data models with DAX and Power Query M, automated transformations with SQL, and designed Power BI workspace architecture with RLS and deployment pipelines—while also developing supplier pricing trend analytics, spend anomaly detection, supplier performance scorecards, and should-cost model analysis that improved negotiation outcomes by 9%.
