ProCura Story

Founder

Elizabeth G. Smith, Founder & CEO.

15+ years in procurement across mining and industrial supply chains. Roles from Strategic Contract Specialist to Procurement Coordinator for multinational groups.

Track record: supplier development, risk control, contract governance, and ISO 9001:2015 alignment. ProCura is her vehicle to turn procurement from “buying” into a strategic performance lever—and a legacy for her son.

Who we are

ProCura Consulting RSA builds procurement systems that scale. We align strategy, process, and compliance so operations run clean and cashflow runs predictable. Our toolkit includes ISO-aligned frameworks, SmartDocs™, supplier onboarding, audits, and advisory. We work with SMEs and corporates across mining, engineering, and heavy industry in South Africa.

What we deliver

• Supplier Partnerships: onboarding, due diligence, audits, performance reviews.
• SmartDocs™: ISO-aligned templates that bundle revision control, training sign-off, and audit trails.
• Consulting & Advisory: gap analysis, strategy, implementation, and internal audits.
• Operational Enablement: process maps, SOPs, and KPIs that make compliance business-as-usual.

How we work

• ISO first: Built against ISO 9001:2015.
• Industry-fit: Tailored for South African operating realities.
• Systemic by design: Clear inputs, owners, controls, and evidence.
• Scalable: From single-site SMEs to multi-site enterprises.

Why clients choose ProCura

• Speed to compliance: SmartDocs™ and SOPs compress time-to-audit.
• Risk visibility: clear controls, owners, and metrics.

• Capability transfer: your team leaves stronger than we found it.

Our

Impact Thesis

1. Women in Procurement

We advance women into procurement and leadership through targeted mentoring, skills pathways, and project exposure. Excellence has no gender. Access should not either.

2. Education & Procurement Literacy

We teach procurement. Plain language. Practical tools.

  • ProCura Workshop: short workshops on sourcing, contracts, supplier risk, and ISO basics.
  • SmartDocs™ with training overlays: each template doubles as a micro-lesson with sign-off and evidence.
  • Client enablement: workshops that leave teams self-sufficient, not consultant-dependent.
  • Vendor readiness: helping SMEs meet buyer requirements so local jobs follow local spend.

3. Employment & Pathways

We create job-ready capability.

  • Intern-to-Analyst placements tied to live client projects.
  • Returnships for women re-entering the workforce.
  • Supplier development so local procurement spend drives local jobs.

4. Ethics & Compliance by Default

POPIA-aware data handling. Segregation of duties. Audit evidence on tap. Zero tolerance for waste, fraud, and abuse.

Our Promise

We don’t sell templates. We install capability. When your next audit, tender, or board review arrives, the evidence is already in the file.
