Abstract

Problem: Dduring my internship at DANA Transejes, thanks to the opportunity I had to provide support in the purchasing department, I identified the need to optimize the department's processes, especially the most critical ones, such as supplier evaluation, efficient management of the requisition flow, and finally, the commercial experience through communication with suppliers and the use of portals with valuable information for future professional development. Objective: The objective of joining the company was to apply the knowledge acquired during my university studies (Economics), contributing to the strengthening of the purchasing department by improving the efficiency of its processes, in order to increase the organization's competitiveness. Method: I was able to perform various departmental functions, including supplier evaluation, support quotations, participation in various meetings with suppliers, and the use of QAD software for preparing summaries and purchase orders. Results: as a purchasing team, we reduced requisition processing times, improved communication with suppliers through evaluations, and, thanks to my team's contributions, I was able to make decisions regarding purchase orders, managing the entire process from initial negotiation to order issuance. These actions generated mutual benefit and optimal professional development for both me and the company. Discussion: my experience at the company allowed me to apply the various theories learned during my university studies in a real-world work environment. This enabled me to develop my skills and abilities to the fullest, including adopting a strategic role and the capacity to make decisions in a company as large as DANA Transejes. This internship was a significant contribution to my life, not only professionally but also personally.
