SAGE Integration Hires April Loftus as Purchasing Manager
SAGE’s Loftus has 13 years of experience purchasing products, including security, cables, fire alarms, AV equipment and building products.
KENT, Ohio – SAGE Integration Holdings LLC has welcomed April Loftus to their team of security professionals as their purchasing manager.
Loftus has more than 13 years of experience purchasing various products, including security, cables, fire alarms, audiovisual equipment, and building products. Her experience includes contract and program negotiations, inventory control, cost management, and demand planning, among other attributes.
“With her wealth of knowledge, April brings valuable expertise in buying and managing products to SAGE Integration,” according to the company announcement.
Why SAGE Integration Hired April Loftus
Loftus started her career in product management, then moved on to sales before trying her hand in supply planning/procurement and “that is where she felt her calling,” according to the SAGE Integration announcement.
She was responsible for purchasing upwards of $2 million in materials per month and maintaining a core group of vendors, the announcement says.
At different intervals in her career, Loftus was responsible for two system-altering projects: creating/building a deviation automation tool, which successfully transmitted deviated pricing between two companies and systems, and developing automation between two purchasing systems to assist with purchase order entry.
“We are thrilled to welcome April to the SAGE Team as our new purchasing manager,” says John Nemerofsky, chief operating officer at SAFE Integration, in the company announcement. “Her exceptional experience and expertise in the purchasing process will be invaluable in contributing to our future growth.”
