Eriez Buyer Earns High Level Certification

After completing a year-long program, Ozimek received the SPSM Certification.

Richard Ozimek, a buyer for Eriez® (Erie, PA), was awarded the SPSM2 Certification from Next Level Purchasing, a globally-recognized leader in online training for purchasing professionals.

According to Next Level Purchasing, individuals must first earn the Senior Professional in Supply Management (SPSM) Certification before being eligible to earn the SPSM2 Certification.

Ozimek achieved the SPSM2 Certification after successfully completing a program comprised of a series of interactive online courses focused on procurement management and international buying. He received the SPSM Certification from Next Level Purchasing earlier this year.

Prior to that, he was employed as a buyer at Snap-Tite, a designer and manufacturer of components for the fluid power, municipal and industrial hose industry.

Eriez purchasing manager Terri Koebe commented, “Richard’s latest accomplishment is another result of his fierce dedication to ongoing education and development. His efforts help to ensure we continue to apply the newest and best practices within the Eriez Purchasing Department.”
