In strategic IT procurement since 2012 – at leading procurement consultancies and industry leaders, most recently in a manager role responsible for global purchasing of software, hardware and cloud.</p> <p>My project experience ranges from global tenders and cost-out programmes to negotiations with Microsoft, SAP, VMware/Broadcom and Oracle. Analysis needs to support decisions, negotiations need to rest on solid facts, and measures need to actually get implemented.</p>https://lydike.com/en/impressum/Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000https://lydike.com/en/impressum/<h2 id="information-pursuant-to-sec-5-ddg-german-digital-services-act">Information pursuant to Sec. 5 DDG (German Digital Services Act)</h2> <p>Jan-Julius Lydike Halker Zeile 25 12305 Berlin Germany</p> <h2 id="contact">Contact</h2> <p>Email: <a href="mailto:julius@lydike.com">julius@lydike.com</a></p> <p>You can also reach us electronically via the <a href="https://lydike.com/en/kontakt/">contact form</a> on this website.</p> <h2 id="vat-identification-number">VAT identification number</h2> <p>VAT identification number pursuant to Sec. 27a of the German VAT Act (Umsatzsteuergesetz):</p> <p>DE361166923</p> <h2 id="consumer-dispute-resolution">Consumer dispute resolution</h2> <p>We are neither obliged nor willing to participate in dispute resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board.</p>https://lydike.com/en/kompetenzen/Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000https://lydike.com/en/kompetenzen/<div class="section-link"><a href="https://lydike.com/en/kontakt/">Prepare a negotiation &rarr;</a></div>https://lydike.com/en/datenschutz/Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000https://lydike.com/en/datenschutz/<p><em>This page is a courtesy translation.
