Amazon’s global procurement operations transformation

Over the past three years, Amazon’s Global Procurement Operations Organisation has been going through a global transformation, which has involved procurement teams working together in a bid to ‘think global, act local’. It means countries like Australia and Singapore can share insights and learnings with teams from the US, Europe and South America.

“We have global categories set up, but given the nature of our operations business, it’s important to us that a lot of what we do is produced locally,” says Godschalx.

“We have set up local operations for particular non-inventory items. We also need to have a lot of on-site services, such as those for food, waste, pallet management and hygiene services, as well as pest control. These often need to be managed by local providers and suppliers as well.”

Godschalx shares an example of how Amazon was previously importing one particular item from the US to Australia, which took around six months. To overcome this, Amazon partnered with a global supplier to find a local Australian supplier, who they could work with to set production up within the country. This reduced that six-month time period to just one week.

“Thinking locally, but using our global presence to leverage new relationships, allows Amazon to maintain the ‘local’ element we’re all so passionate about, while also ensuring we’re able to deliver to our customers on time.”

Godschalx continues: “I’m really excited about the future of the company, and to see how my team and I can continue to make a positive impact.”
