Apics new name

APICS (Association for Supply Chain Management) recently changed its name to Association for Supply Chain Management (ASCM) in 2019. The organization's mission remains the same, which is to empower supply chain professionals to drive success in their organizations and the global economy.

The name change was made to better reflect the organization's expanded scope and focus on supply chain management, which encompasses a broader range of activities and disciplines beyond just inventory management and logistics. The new name is intended to be more inclusive and representative of the organization's diverse membership and the evolving nature of the supply chain profession.

ASCM continues to offer a range of certifications, training programs, and resources to help supply chain professionals develop their skills and advance their careers.
