About Nandan Joshi

Seasoned Sourcing and Vendor Management professional with over 10 years of experience in Automotive and Industrial Machinery. As an Operations Manager, I have achieved success in vendor development and management, sourcing, supply chain management, quality assurance and leadership. Over the period of time, I have gained expertise in maintaining excellent collaboration with vendors for streamlining operations, purchase and negotiations to ensure high quality deliverables meeting project timelines. My overall experience has helped me gain a deep technical know-how of manufacturing processes, digital manufacturing and rapid prototyping and capital procurement. I constantly thrive to achieve success in improving throughput by utilizing continuous process improvement and cross-functional relationship. Since last 3 years, my key focus area is outsourcing of proto components and capital equipment for new product development for Research and Development.I strongly believe that negotiation is to understand the thin line difference between cost, price and value. Conceptualise the process of vendor development and management as the mutual effort by customer and supplier base to improve the supplier’s capabilities or performance in the areas of cost, delivery, technology, quality, time, management, environmental accountability and financial feasibility.
