dc.description.abstract |
The steel industry is one of the most important and influential in the global economy
with a turnover of over U.S. $ 500 billion1. The last, weighs on decisions taken in the
secondary sector in general and more specifically the automotive, construction and
packaging (their main customers). Understand the steel industry and the interconnections
between it and the world economy may be a way to decipher the global events (crisis, the
construction boom, lower production of cars in Europe, boom of activity in China ...)
One of ArcelorMittal ‘s(AM) strategies, which have allowed him to become the
leading global producer of steel and be ranked 41st in Forbes Magazine2 (listing the world's
largest companies) is to equip some of its sites with the most advanced technologies in the
world in order to produce a high quality steel at a competitive price. We now can
understand the importance of designing a good strategy for the implementation of projects
that require a large investment. For that, developing tools for helping the strategic decision
making, is very important for a group like AM
This report details the progress and results of five months of my internship within
the ArcelorMittal Purchasing (AMP). First, the ArcelorMittal group is briefly reviewed:
historical figures, activity and presence throughout the world. My department, ArcelorMittal
Purchasing is then presented: its role, the reason for its creation and its organization. Finally,
we will concentrate on my work at AMP and IPEC, the tool used for strategic planning and
benchmarking, with whom I worked. |
