Supply Chain Management
Central to our approach is the integration of supply chain mechanisms, encompassing internal departments, external consultants, contractors, sub-contractors, suppliers, and manufacturing association.
Procurement strategies take into account the supply chain required to deliver each project and how this connects contractually. We have developed specific processes to manage procurement activities. These are broken down to allow correct identification/separation of each action required, who needs to be involved at each stage, what skills are required, and which tools and techniques should be used.
