The purchasing function, starting as a transactional framework and progressing to a strategic and tactical positioning of procurement, has now evolved into an area of scientific knowledge covering multidisciplinary concepts, and responds to increasing demands for competitiveness and industry performance. Despite the already considerable development in this area, procurement and global sourcing is still in a stage of relative infancy, since it will undoubtedly evolve substantially in the coming years in response to, but also leveraged by, technological advances such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), Cloud Computing, Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS), and other new elements in the value chain that will constitute the next and future industrial revolutions.
In the current context of the evolution of the Procurement area, together with the progress of organizations' awareness of its increasing relevance, this training was of enormous interest and topicality. In addition to the theoretical topics covered in a dynamic and clear way, it is worth highlighting the high level of experience of all the lecturers, who gave a remarkable testimony to the success of this program.
A very comprehensive course, perfect both for those starting their career in Procurement and for those looking to deepen their knowledge. From modules on essential concepts to the current use of AI, Nova SBE’s faculty offers a broad perspective on what Procurement is today. In addition to being informative, the course encourages the exchange of ideas, contexts, and diverse backgrounds among students and faculty. I highly recommend this course to any professional seeking to expand their knowledge and networking in the field.
The Procurement & Global Sourcing program was a source of inspiration and learning, featuring key modules on Operations Management and Value Creation that helped me develop a strategic vision for implementing effective procurement management. The exchange of experiences with guest speakers was extremely enriching and reassuring, especially when hearing the challenges shared by everyone. The program also provided an analysis of current market trends, focusing on the digitalization and sustainability of procurement processes from a comprehensive business perspective, aimed at continuous improvement of results and impact through operational optimization. Additionally, I am convinced that the network built during the course will be a valuable asset in my professional journey.
