About Sumedh Wankhede

Curiosity for how things move, connect, and improve — that’s what drives me in the world of Supply Chain and Procurement. Over the past three years, I’ve had the opportunity to work across India and the UK, exploring how data, strategy, and collaboration can transform operations into intelligent, efficient, and transparent systems.At PRGX Global, I work at the crossroads of analytics and procurement, diving into complex P2P data to uncover inefficiencies and strengthen supplier relationships. My day often revolves around turning raw numbers into insights using SQL, Kirix Strata, and Power BI — building dashboards, analysing spend patterns, and finding opportunities that help global retail clients protect their margins and improve their processes. It’s where technical problem-solving meets business impact.My time at Trent Cliffs Private Healthcare (UK) added another dimension — managing sourcing and vendor operations in a fast-moving, regulated environment. It taught me the importance of precision, adaptability, and how thoughtful data use can keep supply lines steady even under pressure.Earlier, with McDonald’s UK, I learned the value of teamwork and operational discipline — how small process improvements on the floor can ripple across an entire system. And at Reliance Industries, I saw how demand forecasting, logistics, and client engagement align to shape large-scale market outcomes.I hold an MS in Operations and Supply Chain Management from the University of Manchester and a Bachelor’s in Chemical Engineering from the University of Pune. Currently, I’m expanding my analytical edge through an Advanced Certification in Data Science and AI from IIT Roorkee, sharpening my ability to apply predictive insights to real-world supply chain challenges.I believe great supply chains don’t just move goods — they move businesses forward. I’m passionate about bridging analytics with operations to create systems that are smarter, leaner, and built to last.Let’s connect if you’re interested in transforming data into decisions that drive progress, efficiency, and impact.
