Yury Gomez – Microsoft ’ s Process Industries lead – explains why the company ’ s tech ecosystem is driving change
Helping to spearhead digital transformation programs across the process industry is no small feat , but Microsoft ’ s industry executive Yury Gomez is the perfect fit for the job .
Gomez – Global Chief Commercial Leader for Process Industries – has a supply chain background , which means that not only is she battle-hardened , but she also has a real-world understanding of what works and what doesn ’ t when it comes to manufacturing operations .
She has also been tempered by the seismic experience of COVID-19 : “ Supply chains have always existed . It ’ s always been the job of demand planners , forecasters , financial planners , and supply chain leaders to make sure products are at hand , and to take care of inventory control , product delivery , and customer satisfaction . But then COVID- 19 came along and , overnight , none of this worked any more . That was challenging , and I was thrilled to be on my mission to help customers overcome that challenge .”
Gomez began her Microsoft career as Global Executive Director for Pharmaceutical & Life Sciences Manufacturing and Supply Chain Digital Transformation , and had the opportunity to accelerate digital transformations during COVID-19 – a time , she says , “ when customers looked to technology companies to help them overcome their supply chain challenges ”.
