Using integrated logistics strategies, we adapt proven commercial methods for procurement and tools to optimize supply chain performance. These efforts allow us to build country‐level capacity to improve operations along local and global supply chains. Our approach to commodity procurement involves liaising with key vendors and suppliers of commodities globally and locally, subcontractor management, strategic sourcing, and supply and demand forecasting. We dedicate expert technical assistance to the logistical management of commodities, including storage and delivery.
