Alma Flores

Strategic Procurement and Category Management professional with over 11 years of experience leading indirect sourcing initiatives across manufacturing, capital equipment, IT, MRO, retail and international supply networks. I specialize in developing and executing strategic sourcing models, negotiating complex contracts, performing cost and financial analysis, and strengthening supplier governance frameworks aligned with corporate objectives. My analytical mindset, structured approach to project execution, and ability to influence cross-functional and senior stakeholders enable me to translate business requirements into scalable procurement strategies. I thrive in autonomous, high visibility environments where disciplined execution, risk mitigation, and stakeholder alignment are critical. I view procurement as a strategic driver of enterprise value-balancing cost optimization, compliance, and long-term supplier partnerships to support sustainable growth.
