Procurement:

Procurement function is a strong optimisation lever of performances and competitiveness.

Generally speaking and not only within VALCO Group, this function is driven by the current acceleration of the Supply-Chain management. Structuring the supplier relationship to be more effective leads to the whole company efficiency.

While serving the different businesses and operating entities of VALCO Group, it also constitutes a development focus for the group’s activities, notably through the integration of ‘local content’ issues (some components purchases shall be made directly in the finished equipment country of destination).
In this context, the major missions are built around the following focuses:

Define a clear and consistent purchasing policy for the company, offering a high service level to its internal customers and supporting VALCO Group commitments in terms of responsibility (particularly concerning used materials’ origin and traceability);
Contribute to the creation of value by proposing appropriate sourcing to the different operating entities and integrating suppliers markets innovations and evolutions (materials, machining techniques …) ;
Promote procurement.
