If you want to improve your organisation's supply chain performance, you need knowledgeable operators, supervisors, and leaders who understand global standards. The Supply Chain Operations Reference (SCOR) model is the leading supply chain standard that is comprehensive, universally accepted, and open-access. By using SCOR, you can assess and improve your company's supply chain, which leads to better business performance. The latest version, SCOR DS, has undergone a significant update to include sustainability standards and the digital body of knowledge. This modern framework shifts from a linear supply chain model to a more synchronous network, leading to improved business performance. Over 5,000 organisations worldwide have used SCOR to improve their supply chains, resulting in improved operations, faster digital transformation, reduced IT expenses, and ongoing profit improvement.
