Role Summary
Own the design, configuration, and operational rollout of ServiceNow's Strategic Sourcing / RFx (bid, tender, and vendor-evaluation) capability, enabling the hospital's sourcing team to run RFI/RFP/RFQ cycles, evaluate supplier bids, and drive sourcing decisions directly on the ServiceNow platform.

• Integrate bidding/RFx workflows with upstream Procurement and downstream Contract Management processes for a seamless source-to-contract cycle.
• Train hospital sourcing/category managers and evaluation committees on using the platform for live tenders.
• Act as onsite escalation point for bid-cycle issues during live RFx events, ensuring no disruption to time-bound tender deadlines.
• Ensure the bidding solution supports KSA public/quasi-public sector tendering norms (e.g., multi-stage evaluation, sealed-bid handling, compliance documentation).
