How we buy

BBVA Group has a Global Procurement Process Model that has been common and homogeneously implemented in the different countries.

This Global Model

This Global Model covers the procurement process end-to-end: from budget elaboration and approval to suppliers invoice payment, and is carried out in the same technological platform for all the countries. In order to manage all the different negotiation processes that BBVA Group has in the different countries, our buyers have a deep knowledge of the different markets and suppliers. This Model is implemented and applied homogeneously in the different BBVA Group purchasing organizations. However, depending on the products/services requested and the market conditions, the negotiation process can be done by holding or local purchasing teams.
