Hi fishes,
Why TCS is so rude and self proclaimed kinda. I declined TCS offer last year as they were giving very less CTC. Now I got interviewed again with TCS and cleared all the rounds but they are not reactivating my ibegin portal for document upload since I rejected them last year...in this way u think they will never ever reactivate my profile.

That’s a pretty broad topic. What’s the nature of the project? What are you supposed to be accomplishing for the client?
There are people who study supply chain/sourcing in college and spend their whole careers becoming experts, so it’s not something you’re going to pick up quickly. However, I’d suggest educating yourself on AT Kearney’s Seven Steps for Strategic Sourcing. It’s still the gold standard for understanding the foundational principles.
Also, make sure you educate yourself on the categories you are going to be working with. Understand suppliers in those categories, the market trends, and who (the client or supplier) holds the power in the relationship. If you’re being tasked with generating savings, you’ll need to understand where the client has leverage.
Hope that helps.
BTW, what role will you be filling on the project?
