Throughout my internship here at UDC I gained knowledge on how to make a win-win negotiation to both the ends. I was directly involved in the supply chain department of this organization. I also went through some important papers and documents to state purchase order, purchase requisition, SOP etc. for my knowledge development provided by my supervisor at UDC.
