Rayvaughn West
Principal Consultant
I’m an accomplished and dynamic leader with a proven ability to execute against a strategic vision. For more than a decade, I’ve focused on cultivating extensive technology procurement skills, which span various industries including Airline, Healthcare, Information Services, Retail, and Telecommunications. I’m also an effective communicator and artful negotiator with strong interpersonal and strategy development skills. Having served as a functional and strategic leader, I have developed a unique skill set for successfully managing global sourcing practices within complex and transformative environments. Understanding that no two engagements are the same, I take pride in being collaborative while leveraging my experiences to generate measurable, valuable, and desirable results for clients. I am also one of Proxima’s Technology Community of Practice leaders, with deep category expertise in Hardware, Software (including SaaS), IT Services, and Cybersecurity. Serving as commercial lead, I deliver a variety of high-profile programs ranging from cost optimization, market events, merger acquisition & divestment, and transformation.
