Amina Mir

As an experienced Database Administrator, I have honed my skills in managing and optimizing databases within the realm of Management Information Systems (MIS). My expertise extends to utilizing advanced software platforms such as Costpoint, Dayforce, Splash, and Smartsheet, which I have effectively employed to enhance data management and streamline operations.

During my tenure at Dynamic Systems Homes, I was entrusted with a pivotal procurement project that underscored my ability to drive cost efficiency and improve supplier relationships. By conducting a thorough analysis of the existing procurement list, I identified opportunities to align purchasing strategies with current market conditions. This involved soliciting new bids and negotiating terms that resulted in substantial financial savings for the company. My efforts not only optimized procurement processes but also strengthened our supplier network, ensuring more reliable and cost-effective sourcing.

In addition to my procurement achievements, I am committed to leveraging data-driven insights to facilitate strategic decision-making. My goal is to support the achievement of organizational objectives through effective information management, ensuring that data systems are not only robust and secure but also aligned with the broader strategic goals of the organization. Through my combined expertise in database administration and procurement, I aim to contribute to the overall efficiency and success of the organizations I work with.
