The GPC Global Technology Center Supply Chain Integrations team plays a critical role within the organization, supporting and collaborating across nearly every area of the business. Their primary focus is enabling seamless integration between key supply chain platforms which are central to modernizing GPC’s operations.
This team is working smarter, faster and better by intentionally building a culture of learning and structured innovation. Through initiatives like a team book club and regular knowledge-sharing sessions, they create space for open discussion that sparks new ways of thinking, encourages different perspectives and makes creative problem-solving a natural part of their teamwork. After recognizing that many of their projects shared similar patterns, the team developed their own Integration Patterns Library, a set of reusable building blocks that standardizes how they approach integrations and significantly reduces development time.
“What makes our team unique is our mix of personalities and strengths. If you imagine a group of superheroes in an action movie, each one brings a completely different superpower, that’s us. We have strategic thinkers, technical experts, detail-oriented planners, creative problem-solvers and natural connectors who bring people together. What truly sets us apart is how much we value those differences. Each of us brings something special on our own, but together, that’s when we really shine.”– Katsia Kazak, Lead Engineer, Software
