CSCMP & APQC Offer Joint Membership

A CSCMP and APQC Alliance to Address All Your Supply Chain Needs

CSCMP and APQC, the leading benchmarking and best practices research organization, have now created the largest global community of supply chain management professionals. By creating reciprocal member benefits, this alliance addresses your full range of needs -- as an individual or an organization.


Individual CSCMP Members:

Access APQC’s Open Standards BenchmarkingSM assessments in supply chain planning, procurement, manufacturing, logistics, and product development and compare your performance against a global database.

These assessment reports are validated, blinded, normalized, and delivered within one week. Access to unlimited supply chain benchmarking is included as a benefit of your CSCMP membership; the retail value is $5,000 per assessment.

In addition, members receive reciprocal APQC member pricing for products, content or events offered.

To Get Started

  • Individual CSCMP members visit APQC’s Open Standards Benchmarking assessments for supply chain and product development benchmarks. When asked “How did you hear about the survey?” please select “CSCMP” to ensure your submission is tied to your membership.
  • Corporate CSCMP members contact Burt Blanchard at + 1 630.574.0985 or corporate@cscmp.org to activate your APQC reciprocal membership or to learn more about membership benefits and pricing.

Corporate CSCMP Members:

In essence, your corporate CSCMP membership is also an APQC supply chain membership. Resources include:

  • Knowledge Base—download unlimited content including metrics, benchmarks, best practices, case studies, and research reports.
  • Benchmarking Portal—conduct online assessments via tools such as these:
    • Benchmarks on Demand—request instant, automated benchmarks.
    • Rapid Performance Assessments—provide your data and generate a custom improvement report.
    • Open Standards Benchmarking Assessments—secure a comprehensive performance comparison.
  • Process Classification FrameworkSM (PCF)—access a common language to describe organizational processes. The second edition of CSCMP’s Standards uses the PCF to present the minimum and best-practice attribute.
  • Ask Us!—submit your process improvement questions to a team of analysts, thought leaders, and subject matter experts.

Membership is open to all employees in your organization worldwide or in any majority-owned subsidiary of your organization.
