Director , Corporate Procurement
Keith Boden is a public procurement specialist who has held the position as Director of Corporate Procurement with BCLC since 2009 . Prior to that he worked in purchasing with the company , after joining from Fraser Health Authority where he worked initially as a buyer . Keith is proud of what he ’ s achieved with the company , but says nothing would ’ ve been possible without the staff . He said : “ I have to give a nod to the workforce management efforts because we ’ ve managed to get the right people in the right positions . That ’ s a big part of what we were trying to achieve . “ The staff do a lot of the heavy lifting ; they implement all of the new methodologies and new software and managed to make everything work , so acknowledgement that our success and transformation is very well deserved . Without the staff , we would not be successful . Even with the best methodologies and the best systems to automate business process , you cannot make it work without the right people behind you .”
WE REALLY CHANGED UP OUR STRATEGIC SOURCING METHODOLOGIES and we adopted a new public procurement standard , allowing for BETTER DECISION MAKING AND DEEPER ENGAGEMENT WITH VENDORS
