ISM 30 Under 30 Rising Supply Chain Stars

A Recognition Program for Emerging Supply Management Professionals

The ISM 30 Under 30 Rising Supply Chain Stars recognition program shines a spotlight on outstanding young procurement/supply chain management professionals for their passion, creativity and contributions to supply chain management.

Now, in its ninth year, the program selects 30 remarkable professionals annually, to highlight and celebrate. Nominations are reviewed based on four pillars: involvement in their professional organization, contributions and achievements in supply chain, professional and personal characteristics, and any other extraordinary dynamics such as: community involvement, volunteer work, work-life balance, and hobbies.

Winners receive discounts, mentorships, press and recognition, along with an invaluable inclusion in a network of ISM award winners. Winners are also celebrated at our ISM Awards Gala and with free conference admission, they are continually recognized and experience a one of a kind networking opportunity at ISM World Annual Conference.

Meet the 2022 Megawatt Winner

Khalid Al Barwani

Contract engineer, contract and procurement department | Petroleum Development Oman, a joint venture with Shell Oil Company

Khalid Al Barwani is the category manager and contract engineer for the drilling rigs portfolio and category strategy, considered one of the most critical categories at Petroleum Development Oman (PDO), with an annual spend of US$500 million. He has been in the forefront in delivering PDO’s first integrated rig category strategy — which won the finance directorate’s award of excellence for generating millions in cost savings and improved health and safety — and will contribute toward a net-zero target by 2050. In addition, Al Barwani was part of the PMO team for the near-term sustainability program (NTSP), helping the supply chain team capitalized on low oil prices to deliver more than $1 billion in cost savings over two years. His analytical, project management and collaboration skills played a key role in program’s success. During the coronavirus pandemic, PDO was faced with a major crisis — materials at high risk of delays. As a member of the COVID-19 emergency taskforce, Al Barwani was assigned a key role as the procurement focal point for critical items, protecting the company successfully against supply chain disruptions and maintaining oil production.
