At the event, the Supply-Chain Council made three important announcements in conjunction with the conference:

SCOR 9.0: On the opening day of the conference, we announced the release of version 9.0 of the Supply-Chain Operations Reference (SCOR®) model and the SCOR professional certification program. Version 9.0 marks a significant evolution in the SCOR model. This major update includes expanded risk management capabilities, an entirely new metrics section, and new features to guide companies’ environmental sustainability efforts.
SCOR-Professional (SCOR-P) Certification Program: The SCOR-Professional (SCOR-P) Certification Program standardizes the credentials for supply-chain expertise and creates a consistent global standard for excellence in the application of SCOR to an organization’s supply chain operations.
Supply-Chain Excellence Awards: On Tuesday at the conference, we presented the 2008 Supply Chain Excellence Awards to four enterprises: IBM, Lockheed Martin Aerospace Company, Agilent Technologies Inc., and the United States Air Force. The Supply-Chain Excellence Awards are given annually in recognition of organizations that understand the critical role of, and are committed to optimizing, supply chain performance.

You can read the full news releases for all three of these announcements by visiting the News & Press page on the Supply-Chain Council’s website.

And don’t forget to mark your calendars now for the 2009 Supply-Chain World North America Conference & Exposition, to be held March 16-18 in Houston.
