Challenge: A leading consulting firm faced an urgent need for a specialised Procurement Consultant for CDMO work. The role required deep knowledge of chemicals and solvents, strategic sourcing expertise, and strong analytical capability. The consultant also needed to handle large datasets and complex procurement processes. In addition, the firm needed support across spend classification, vendor consolidation analysis, alternate supplier identification, and RFQ development. Solution: The firm used a specialist talent platform to source the right consultant from its network. The team captured the role requirements in detail, with a focus on CDMO experience and category knowledge. A matching algorithm (FlexScore) filtered profiles to identify consultants with the precise skill set needed, and the shortlist was narrowed to a few qualified candidates. The provider then coordinated end-to-end interviews and handled contracting, negotiation, and compliance to streamline onboarding. Results: The firm identified and selected a CDMO procurement consultant from a small set of highly qualified candidates. Interview scheduling and coordination were completed efficiently through managed support. Contracting and legal compliance were handled end-to-end, aligning expectations and deliverables. The consultant was onboarded with a clear scope and was set up to contribute from day one.
