Our Global Procurement Organization (GPO) manages the procurement lifecycle of complex projects necessary to support Amazon’s growth and customer commitments.

Post-PO, our team serves as a critical resource resolving start up escalations and supplier issues and existing FC’s, partnering closely with Category teams.
