About SCiL Procurement
SCiL Procurement is an independent advisory practice focused on structured commercial negotiation and procurement governance.
The practice was founded by Rob Slijkhuis, a senior procurement and commercial leader with more than 20 years of experience in complex enterprise environments.
He supports organizations in high-stakes negotiations, contract restructurings, and procurement operating model design — often at executive stakeholder level.
His work focuses on restoring commercial control, reducing exposure, and creating structured negotiation environments where outcomes improve.
