Procurement and Logistics
Introduction
The corporate sector faces several obstacles in managing successful procurement and logistics systems. This program is designed for those who want to learn about procurement and how to create and execute effective and efficient strategies for the flow of commodities, information, and human resources. This program allows you to contact with the greatest procurement and logistics management faculty in order to better understand and integrate critical disciplines. In order to meet your needs, we use a competency-based training approach.
Program Goals
The program is intended to address the efficient management of procurement and logistics process as a critical factor for business success. Together with the individual logistics/procurement functions, there is a particular focus on industry-specific demands and modern logistics/procurement technologies. Logistics/procurements have not in the past been given the importance it deserves. However, recently logistics/procurements have been recognized as a major function in its own right.
Program Objectives
This program aims to explore and analyze the vital role logistics/procurements play in the successful running of a firm. The program provides the student with an introduction to some of the fundamental aspects of distribution and logistics, and then examines the main elements of the subject. The program ultimately aims to familiarize the student with the diverse and dynamic functions of logistics and analyze the constraints and demands imposed upon today’s local and global business environments.
