Scannecs Procurement & Consultancy
Professional procurement coordination for the Offshore Renewable Energy, Oil & Gas and Industry sectors. Let me handle your procurement while you focus on delivering your project.
"The sweetness of low cost will be long forgotten when poor performance, delay, cost overruns or breakdown are a fact."
The Challenge
Only too often Procurement is one of the many responsibilities of the Project Manager. This requires much attention, time and energy whilst also coordinating complex projects. The project manager's valuable time is sometimes fully claimed by the team, the client or regulatory compliance requirements.
The Silent Killer
When neglected, supplier's poor performance often shows up in the last stage of the project, becoming the 'silent project killer'.
Complex Requirements
Projects require systems to organize engineering, meet regulatory compliance, certification and matters like design appraisal.
Resource Drain
The third orientation on suppliers and contractors can consume valuable time and resources from the team if not delegated properly.
The Solution
I take care of procurement coordination and subcontracting, providing more time for the project manager to perform their core duties. I closely liaise with legal, engineering, tender department and site management.
Within Time & Budget
Contracts and procurement delivered on schedule and within financial targets.
Full Visibility
You always know the status of deliveries and subcontracts at any moment.
Quick Return
Smart and effective procurement is a small investment with a quick return.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about procurement coordination and how I can help your project.
Yes it will be cheaper, and the project engineer knows what the scope is. On the other hand, the engineer is educated to do engineering and will, unintentionally, skip commercial and legal aspects of the work. Having a dedicated procurement specialist ensures all aspects are properly covered.
It's correctly stated on the overall project responsibility by the PM. Procurement can be delegated and jointly performed allowing the PM to focus on the management tasks. It's a bit blunt to state that the PM can't go on - on the contrary, delegating this important task will increase his control on deliverables, expenditures and the end result.
That's a possibility and can be done. As a matter of fact, I know some of the best agencies. Sadly to see that via too many agencies you pay for their high margin. Direct contact is an opportunity you can benefit from - eliminating the middleman means cost savings and direct communication.
No, it is not. Procurement for the offshore industry differs from maritime, or on-shore business. You will gain benefit when you hire someone with knowledge from that specific type of business. Understanding the unique requirements, regulations, and challenges of the offshore O&G industry is crucial for successful project delivery.
