Elena possesses an ability to connect with suppliers in a manner that ultimately leads to a win-win situation. She impressed me more than once with her ability to successfully negotiate terms that going in were low probability of success... Elena is a team player that possess the ability to work independently in fulfilling the full subcontracts life cycle from identification of a need, finding reliable suppliers, development of effective procurement documents including RFP, SOW, T&C, effective negotiation skills, contract signing and management of the subcontract through its period of performance. Elena is a true subcontracts professional that would be a welcome addition to any company team requiring highly effective and efficient subcontracts management.

Elena has an analytical mind that she combines with her knowledge of purchasing and engineering to achieve the best results for the company she works for. She is diligent and efficient. Not only would I hire her again, I would seek her out and attempt to lure her away from her current position were I still in the same geographic location.
