Sanjeev Kumar
Global Procurement Manager @ Hewlett Packard Enterprise
About
Throughout my career, I have always believed that Procurement is much more than negotiating contracts or managing suppliers. When procurement is aligned with business objectives, it becomes a key driver of operational excellence, business continuity and long-term growth. Over the last 19 years, I have had the opportunity to work across Global Supply Chain, Strategic Procurement and Program Management, partnering with teams across the Americas, EMEA and APJ. Every role has helped me understand that successful procurement is not just about reducing cost—it is about building strong supplier relationships, managing risk, improving efficiency and enabling the business to achieve its goals. In my current role with Hewlett Packard Enterprise, I manage Strategic Procurement for the Global Logistics and Spare Supply Chain business. Along with managing a procurement portfolio of more than US$110 Million, my focus is on strengthening supplier governance, improving operational efficiency, supporting business continuity and driving procurement transformation through data and technology. Some of the milestones that I take pride in are: • Managing a global procurement portfolio valued at over US$110 Million. • Supporting initiatives that contributed to US$45 Million in business revenue. • Improving supplier compliance to 97.3% through stronger governance and performance management. • Reducing executive reporting timelines by 35% using Power BI-based reporting and analytics. • Leading critical supply recovery initiatives that ensured uninterrupted customer deliveries during challenging business situations. What I enjoy most about my role is working with people across Procurement, Supply Chain, Engineering, Finance and Operations to solve business problems. I strongly believe that the best solutions come when different teams work together with a common objective. As supply chains continue to evolve, I am particularly interested in how digital technologies, analytics and AI can help procurement teams make better decisions, improve supplier performance and create long-term value for the business. I always look forward to connecting with professionals who are passionate about Procurement, Supply Chain, Digital Transformation and Leadership.
