The new Strategic Indirect Procurement Department will be tasked with the management of suppliers and all parties interested, contract negotiations targeting customer requests across all European regions, as well as other strategic tasks.
“Our department covers a wide range of activities related to the procurement area, from market research to the management of contracts we handle by means of an advanced “Source to Contract”-type procurement software developed on a Cloud platform. This aspect offers our colleagues many development and growth perspectives”, said Adrian Comanean, manager of the procurement hub in Timisoara.
The new procurement hub in Timisoara will manage global procurement for a series of categories of services and products, such as logistics and professional services, equipment and IT services, machines and production lines, Maintenance, Repair and Operations (MRO), building management services, and for a correct and efficient management of all needs from locations of Bosch Group at European level.
In 2021, Bosch Services Solutions in Timisoara hired some 600 people specialized in the fields of software development, IT Help Desk, customer service, controlling, accounting, project management, logistics, acquisitions and sales, of whom 50 specialists work exclusively in the new department.
