APICS is pleased to announce a new agreement between APICS and the Supply Chain Council (SCC) that will enhance benefits for the members of both associations.
SCC is the world’s leading authority on supply chain methodology, diagnostics, and benchmarking based on the SCOR® standard. Its product offerings are a complement to APICS
education and certification programs, which provide a foundation for the supply chain improvement activities that SCC promotes.
This collaboration brings together the two leading supply chain organizations to develop the knowledge of their members and deepen the skills sets of supply chain and operations
management professionals across the globe. Beginning today, APICS members worldwide will receive
-
member rates on SCC training classes and the SCOR Professional Certification.
-
access to the acclaimed SCORmark benchmarking program. SCORmark benchmarks an organization’s supply chain based on SCOR metrics and enables users to measure
how it rates in relation to other organizations.
-
member pricing at SCC events, including the SCOR Seminar – Focus on Defense and IT Industries, Convergence of SCOR, May 13, 2009, in Atlanta, GA.
SCC will conduct a free Webinar for APICS members on Friday, May 8, at noon, CT. The Webinar will be an introduction to the Supply Chain Council and will include a benefits
overview.
APICS will offer member pricing to SCC members, including the member rates on certification exams, the 2009 APICS International Conference & Expo, and the APICS and IBF Best
of the Best Sales and Operations Planning Conference in June.
We are very excited about the possibilities for the members of both organizations.
