Create the Game
You need to move from a transactional procurement organization to a high-performing one with redefined stakeholder partnerships, clear value delivery and true alignment with business objectives. You're developing Procurement 2.0.

Why we do it.
The one-size-fits-all approach is so yesterday.
Mean it.
Transformation is at our core. We are driven by the desire to create solutions that propel our clients to the next level.
Be Curious.
We believe in the power of intentional design. We are committed to finding our client's truth to create elegant solutions just for them.
Create Impact.
We are procurement nerds. We advocate for procurement and help our clients drive incredible value for their companies.
Our Founders Story.
Our vision is to amplify the power of procurement. We believe our focused and customized approach will enable our clients to profoundly impact their bottom lines.
After 25 years in the procurement field, Natasha became convinced there was a better, faster and easier way for companies to tap into the power of procurement. She was taking a closer look at replicating the best practices across multiple businesses, especially focusing on those that couldn’t afford a fully staffed procurement team or the right level of expertise. She was fixated on finding ways to create the value that sticks, dispelling the stigma of Procurement being a gatekeeper and working again with colleagues passionate about disseminating Procurement know-how across the industries.
Candor needed a what, a how, and a why. Natasha brought the what and Riley became the how. A restless learner with an analytical mind, he was obsessed with building long-term procurement solutions that would put suppliers and compliance in the center of sustainable procurement. They understood each other and realized that their why's were congruent - a passion for working with great people and a desire to make a change in the industry that would make a lasting impact.
Jason joined his former colleagues soon after - partly due to FOMO - but most importantly for the promise and excitement of building a new, impactful offering in the procurement space. Having worked and led teams at both Fortune 500 and small companies, he’s seen the power of effective spend management. A committed aficionado of transformation and effective operations, he has brought the methods behind the madness.
Although we have a passion for helping all clients, we have a little extra soft spot for small and emerging businesses. We love helping them build the right foundation for growth and being a part of bringing their future closer to today.
We built Candor with the phrase See the Truth, Be the Change. That means helping clients find their truth, identify things that can be changed, and empower them to drive that change. If you're in, so are we.
