Our Mission
Our mission is to support our UN clients and partners to fulfill their mandates by providing the goods and services they need, when they need them, where they need them, and at the best price.. We strive to improve our performance – including partner and client engagement – to cultivate smarter operations that link business processes, tangible measurements, and best practices in one unified structure. Client satisfaction and agile delivery is the heart of our mission, and this drives us to provide the most cost-effective goods and services to the entire Secretariat as well as Troop and Police Contributing Countries (T/PCCs).
Our Integrated Team
The integration of procurement with logistics and enabling functions is incumbent to our Supply Chain success. This facilitates value though our global strategic plans, robust category management approach, and Global Freight Forwarding solutions. As one unit, our cost negotiations, purchasing, transportation planning and management, and global forecasting initiatives will operate with less red-tape, and staff are given the freedom to focus on fulfilling demand and enhancing organizational responsiveness. Our Enabling and Outreach team consistently monitors and measures the health of our supply chain so we can assess business gaps with precision and apply innovative solutions to improve our overall performance. The Aviation Safety team is another link to our Supply Chain success; they will oversee the Organization’s aviation operations, including safety risk assessments, safety assurance activities, and technical clearance of aviation service vendors.
