MOHAMED HAOUARI
Director of the MBA Logistics, Purchasing and Supply Chain program

Holder of a Research Master's degree in logistics and strategic management and a Doctorate in management sciences obtained from the Center for Research on Transport and Logistics (CRET-LOG) at Aix-Marseille University, Mohamed HAOUARI is currently an associate professor and program manager at the École Supérieure de Logistique Industrielle- ESLI in Redon. With significant experience, particularly as Deputy Director of GIP CEI ESLI ESTI until December 2024, he has been responsible or co-responsible for several programs, ranging from Bac+3 to Bac+5.

His teaching areas mainly include project management, production management, risk management, and operational excellence. Furthermore, he is the author or co-author of several articles and book chapters focusing particularly on risk management, Supply Chain decarbonization, and logistics cindynics.

The objective of the training is to train generalist managers competent in the secure organization of physical, information, and financial flows from suppliers (purchasing), through production, to customers/users, in a double context of digitalization-robotization and sustainable development.

The context is that of companies, public or private, facing a need to accelerate response times to customers and secure logistics processes, a context popularized by Anglo-Saxons by the concept of hyper-competition. The program thus fits into a movement revisiting the technological (data analysis, energy choices and efficiency, robotization, connected objects, etc.) and managerial skills necessary for future logisticians (procurement, production, distribution) and buyers.
