The MU Consumer Practice & Retail Practice invites to their Communication Platform together with Alejandra Garcia, VP of Procurement at DSM, on 13.05.2024 at 9.00 a.m. CET via MS Teams.
“Digitalisation is one of the key challenges in the consumer industry. Most companies are going or will go through some form of digital transformation, but quickly realise the value they expected in the business case is not realizing in the way it was expected. Before cutting your digital budget, outsourcing the project or dismantling the team, Alejandra Garcia will share the good, the bad and the potential ugly of digital transformations and what you can do to capture it's full value.”

In her current role at DSM, she launched in 2021 the digital procurement and supply chain end-to-end transformation that has achieved significant margin improvements, OWC optimization, risk mitigation and supplier engagement.
