How do you become a supply manager?

Na minha vis?o, além do que o artigo já traz em sua síntese, como gerente de suprimentos, precisamos: - Pensamento estratégico: nenhuma empresa de sucesso busca profissionais de suprimentos que só pensam nas suas atividades de rotina, é preciso ir além, pensar e entender o negócio como um todo; - ética e respeito com clientes internos, com os pares e, principalmente, com os fornecedores. A era de "esfolar fornecedor" já se foi a muito tempo; - Nenhum líder, seja de suprimentos ou de outras áreas, terá sucesso sem fazer uma boa gest?o de indicadores, com a devida dinamica e velocidade de rea??o, sempre mirando os melhores resultados; - é fundamental o bom relacionamento com a equipe, com os fornecedores e a manuten??o de um bom networking.

In my experience, you need a combination of technical, business, and interpersonal skills. Some of the technical skills should include of procurement process.

Based on my experience and knowledge, getting hands on training is essential to understanding the role. Educating yourself is the next step, as it allows you to grow into your role and act accordingly.

In my case, in order to be able to carry out the public procurement procedure, you must first obtain a certificate from a public procurement officer. Therefore, you must know the law on public procurement well. Then you need to be prepared to collect a lot of details about the needs of your organizational units and analyze them in detail, then you have a good knowledge of finances to make a good annual procurement plan according to the available funds. In addition to all that, the entire process of conducting public procurement requires active correspondence with internal and external interested parties, as well as constant monitoring of valid legal regulations.

My experience spans before specially certification and degrees. You worked, you learned, you put your time in. You built trust. Anyone can get a degree, but can you do the job? If you sit and answer a question with "the computer says..." you have FAILED. Root cause analysis, effective mitigation solutions and COMMUNICATION are Key to success. One the other side, pay tells you how much value the company has in the position. Low pay = low value.

A bagagem que você carrega é bastante relevante para ocupar esta posi??o, pois saber permear pelos detalhes de alguns assuntos e temas é fundamental para definir uma boa estratégia da área e negociar alguns “comuns acordos” com stakeholders. Além disso, as conex?es que você faz, ao longo da sua trajetória, geram exposi??es que alavancam a sua prospec??o de carreira, visto que os demais envolvidos enxergam valor na sua atua??o e ajudam a refor?ar as suas competências.

In my experience networking is a key driver in defining success. Treat every opportunity as a learning experience regardless of how trivial it may seem at the time. By being helpful and genuinely interested in how your role impacts those around you will help you drive success.
