I am a MBA in Operations and Finance from Amity Business School, Noida, India. I also hold a Bachelor of Technology (B.Tech) in Mechanical from Beant College of Engineering & Technology, Gurdaspur, Punjab, India.

I am currently working as Sr Engineer, MM-Planning in BHEL, a Schedule- ‘A’ CPSE in India. As a MM planning officer my role is to effectively plan and control the ‘Bought Out’ Items and materials inventory in order to achieve the desired service levels with optimum stock level. Also to Setup and administer policy and procedures for cost control and minimum Stock analysis. Previously worked as a Purchase officer at BHEL, where I worked extensively worked on procurement, supplies and related services.

Materials Management requires continuous learning. I found CPPP very helpful to further enhance domain knowledge. Also, the course is a blend of e-learning and self-study. The division of the course into various modules Introduction to Procurement and Public procurement, Public Procurement Operations; and Public Procurement and Good Governance helps in modulated learning at our own pace and availability of study time. I am further looking to complete Certificate Program in Contract Management (CPCM) through www.procurementlearning.org.

CPPP gives you an opportunity to learn and develop at your comfort and has been made easy to understand. Best part of CPPP is that it is helpful for people of all fields be it technology, agriculture, FMCG, manufacturing etc., since material procurement is the basic requirement of any business.
