Licia brings a distinctive combination of manufacturing ownership, procurement leadership and hands-on strategic sourcing expertise to Supplier Solutions Group. After more than 20 years owning and operating a manufacturing business, she went on to lead procurement, sourcing, supplier development and supply chain initiatives within manufacturing organizations.
Her experience spans strategic sourcing, supplier identification and qualification, negotiations, cost reduction, supplier development and performance, supply continuity, and cross-functional work with engineering and operations. Licia’s passion is building high-caliber supplier portfolios across diverse materials, engineered components, and outsourced manufacturing capabilities that improve cost competitiveness, strengthen supply continuity, expand supplier capability, and reduce sourcing risk.
This combination of business ownership, manufacturing experience and senior procurement leadership gives SSG a practical perspective on supplier decisions — not simply what looks good on a quote, but what works for the operation and the business.
