TLU Procurement Academy

More than a training course: a procurement management system developed in international procurement organisations and proven in the field. A system integration in which you leave every module — from strategy to cost-breakdown negotiation and AI applications — with tools you can start using in your company straight away, and learn through case studies how to use them, with your own data if you wish.

At the TLU Consulting Academy, knowledge only gains value when it can be applied.

Founder · Trainer

I am the founder of TLU Consulting and the developer of getcifa.com, a procurement intelligence platform.

At Kingfisher (B&Q, Castorama), I set up a price control system across more than 500 negotiations on a £1.5 billion budget; we achieved striking savings results.

I worked on the implementation and development of an IKEA-model procurement system, and played an active role in the largest procurement merger in the automotive world (GM & PSA).

I completed procurement schools in Canada and France (Concordia + PSA Academy).

I have delivered corporate training to procurement teams in France, the UK, Poland and Romania; today I share the same methods with procurement professionals in Türkiye.
