echelon is a leading procurement consultancy firm, which specialises in providing advice, support and training to public sector housing organisations, primarily in the field of asset management.Operating across the UK, it has a flexible service offering suited to working with organisations of any size and works collaboratively with clients to develop tailored solutions.echelon has also built a reputation for undertaking robust reviews in internal service delivery, commercial and contract management reviews and providing training and support to help teams and organisations work more effectively.I blend my entrepreneurial role of developing the businesses within the echelon group with an active project management role within echelon Consultancy, maintaining an intimate knowledge of the issues facing the sector and remaining accessible to clients.With unrivalled experience in the development, procurement and delivery of asset management projects within the affordable housing sector, as a client, contractor and consultant, I have developed a reputation as an industry influencer.I go out into the sector to share best practice, speaking at many industry events and continue to be in demand on the conference seminar circuit and I facilitate for echelon’s Asset Management Improvement Partnership (AMIP) and the contractor equivalent CAMIP.I also worked closely with HACT on a voluntary basis to develop its social value and procurement toolkit, as well as being actively involved in the production of the 2018 Procurement Best Practice Guide and Toolkit.
