Building modern Procurement for Pharma & Regulated Industries.
From foundations to AI.
A specialist advisory practice helping organisations — particularly in Pharma, Healthcare and other regulated industries — build Procurement capabilities that deliver measurable business value, support better commercial decisions and evolve with the business.
Founded and led by Andrea Pieroni, with 15+ years of international Procurement experience shaped primarily in Pharma and complemented by work across FMCG, Retail and Real Estate.
A founder-led Procurement practice built for real business challenges.
Procurement functions rarely struggle because they lack activity. They struggle when governance, stakeholder engagement, supplier management and commercial decision-making do not evolve at the same speed as the business.
The practice primarily supports Pharma, Healthcare and other regulated organisations, combining strategic direction with hands-on execution to build and transform Procurement capabilities.
Each engagement is designed around the client's actual needs, with trusted specialist expertise brought in where required while maintaining senior leadership, accountability and a consistent way of working.
The focus is practical: creating Procurement capabilities that are easier for the business to work with, more visible to Finance and capable of delivering measurable outcomes.
- Procurement transformation and function building
- Operating model and governance
- Category strategy and strategic sourcing
- Stakeholder engagement and business partnering
- Supplier performance and collaboration
- AI-enabled Procurement and decision support
Beyond savings. Procurement as a business connector.
Procurement 3.0 is the practice's framework for building a Procurement function that creates measurable value across four interconnected pillars: Performance, Innovation, Reputation & Resilience and Talent & Capability. It connects internal business priorities, supplier ecosystems and external market intelligence to help organisations make better decisions, manage risk and scale more effectively.
Performance
Efficiency & Value
Cost, demand, cash and commercial decisions translated into measurable P&L and business impact.
Innovation
AI & Digital Procurement
Supplier innovation, market intelligence, digital solutions and AI translated into practical business use cases.
Reputation & Resilience
Responsible & Resilient Supply Networks
Risk, compliance, governance, diversity and continuity embedded into commercial decisions.
Talent & Capability
People, Leadership & Adoption
Procurement capability, stakeholder collaboration and supplier relationships that sustain performance over time.
The objective is not more technology. It is better Procurement.
Value goes beyond savings, but it must still be translated into outcomes the business can recognise. If Finance cannot see it, Procurement has not finished the job.
AI is not treated as a standalone Procurement project. It is integrated where it can improve judgement, speed, consistency and adoption across category management, supplier intelligence, contract review, stakeholder engagement and decision-making.
Senior-led. Flexible by design.
Every engagement is led with senior accountability and structured around the client's actual needs.
Where the scope requires additional expertise, the practice brings together trusted specialists across Procurement, category management, analytics, change, technology and relevant industry domains.
This model provides clients with focused expertise and flexibility without the complexity and overhead of a large traditional consultancy.
Services built around measurable outcomes.
Engagements can range from focused advisory support to complete transformation programmes, interim leadership and multidisciplinary project delivery.
