West & Mae Holdings LLC is a veteran-led procurement, supply chain, and operations consulting firm based in the Dallas–Fort Worth area and serving clients nationwide. We embed senior capability inside your organization and take ownership of the work — the sourcing events, the purchase orders, the vendor relationships, the documentation.
Most of our clients are not short on ideas. They are short on bandwidth and structure: a procurement function stretched thin, a construction buyout moving faster than the paperwork, or a supply base that has never been formally reviewed. We bring order to that work and report on it in plain numbers.
Category strategy, sourcing events, negotiation, and purchase-to-pay discipline owned by someone accountable for the outcome.
Freight, inventory, and distribution decisions evaluated on cost-to-serve rather than convention.
Documented processes, approval structures, and reporting that hold up under audit and stand up to scrutiny.
Capabilities
Engagements are scoped to the work in front of you — from a single sourcing event to full ownership of the procurement function.
Executive-level procurement leadership without the cost or commitment of a full-time hire. We own the function, the numbers, and the outcomes.
02Purchase-to-pay handled end to end — accurate purchase orders, on-time delivery, clean invoice matching, and no surprises at month end.
03Structured sourcing events and negotiation preparation that move price, terms, and risk in your favor — with the analysis to prove it.
04Supplier performance measured, reviewed, and managed — so your critical vendors behave like partners instead of vendors.
05Buyout packages, long-lead equipment, and submittal tracking that keep the schedule and the budget from drifting apart.
06Owner-side representation with the discipline of a procurement team behind it — budget, schedule, vendors, and accountability.
Also available: procurement process improvement, contract administration, and RFQ/RFP support. See the full scope.
Engagement Models
Every engagement is customized to project complexity, workload, and business need. The commercial structure, however, is deliberately simple.
Recommended starting point
A fixed-scope, fixed-term engagement that delivers a defined outcome inside 30 days — and gives you a working sample of how we operate.
For a defined initiative
Ideal for a sourcing event, a buyout package, a system or process rollout, or a single high-stakes negotiation with a hard deadline.
For sustained ownership
Ongoing procurement leadership and managed purchasing on a monthly basis, scaled to the volume and pace of your business.
Industries
Our work sits where procurement, schedule, and operational risk intersect. The sectors below share one trait: the cost of getting purchasing wrong is measured in more than money.
Industries we serveWhy West & Mae
Our engagements are led by people who have carried the consequences of these decisions: negotiated the contracts, managed the buyout, answered the audit, and owned the schedule. That experience changes the questions we ask first.
01
Veteran-led operations mean decisions are documented, deadlines are real, and follow-through is not optional.
02
You get straight findings, including the ones that are inconvenient. Recommendations are defensible, never convenient.
03
Every dollar of spend is treated as if it were our own, and every commitment we make is one we can keep.
04
If an improvement cannot be measured, it cannot be managed. We define the metric before the work begins.
Insights
Most organizations do not have a spending problem. They have a visibility problem. Here is how a focused four-week review surfaces real money without disrupting operations.
Single-source categories rarely look risky on a balance sheet. They look efficient — right up until the day they don't. A simple index makes the exposure visible.
Switchgear, elevators, custom millwork, transformers. The items that take longest to arrive are rarely the items being tracked most closely — and the schedule pays for it.
Next Step
Start with a discovery call. If there is a fit, we scope a 30-day pilot with a defined objective and measurable result.
