Scott Cooper
Over the course of his career, Scott has served in organizations ranging from startups to ~$3B global businesses. He has managed teams with revenue goals of up to $250M and operational budgets of up to $50M. He is known as a force multiplier of success, solving complex business and operational issues for both privately and publicly traded SaaS-based companies. The following are a few benchmark examples of his performance:
Business Transformation and Operational Efficiency
Scott was sought by a client to transform the BMS for enhanced executive decision-making and operational efficiency. Within 6 months, he spearheaded a comprehensive overhaul of enterprise-wide processes and streamlined the BMS by eliminating redundant reporting, optimizing financial forecasting, and synchronizing quarterly review processes. Launched the company’s first internal/external NPS surveys, uncovering actionable insights that gained immediate executive sponsorship and implementation. Led multiple margin enhancement initiatives, including procurement optimization, Lean Six Sigma implementation, and Financial Transformation through AI/RPA/offshoring solutions. These initiatives resulted in a 20% cost reduction and established new SOPs that were rapidly adopted across the organization.
Sales Transformation
Contract processes were rife with inefficiencies and extraneous costs with no formal procurement group in place. In the first ~90 days, spearheaded improvements and compiled a company-wide vendor/contract inventory. Then, consolidated contracts, took charge of large-scale contract negotiations, bargained for lower enterprise rates, and created a formal procurement team. These actions saved the company $10M (Y1), were duplicated and made standard, and established a standardized vendor review process.
