Should I take just one course?

What you take depends on what you want to do with the SCOR expertise you develop.

If you need to understand what others are doing with SCOR, then SCOR Framework is enough.

If you want a current, advanced supply chain course to fulfill training requirements, then SCOR Framework is enough.

If you desire to understand what the bell weather companies in your industry are doing to succeed when others fail, then SCOR Framework is enough.

With SCOR Framework, you will master SCOR's framework, End-2-End SC mapping, metric hierarchies, and Strategic Performance Scorecard building.

Still, if you want to implement SCOR or master SC change, there's more you should add to what you are already doing.

Aha's from our SCOR class...

...how SCOR really is an end-to-end framework of the entire supply chain.

I plan to immediately start implementing SCOR with our client projects.

...I loved the very small class ... It was almost like one-on-one training...

I plan to recommend the course to all of my colleagues who have not taken any formal SCOR training. For those that do plan to take it, I will 100% recommend that (they) take Cynthia's course.

Why should I add Implementation Essentials?

If you want to use SCOR to…

• Have unique tools to improve understanding & that integrate with tools you currently use
• Update your metrics to industry standard using hierarchies providing vertical & horizontal SC visibility
• Create supplier scorecards based on your company's Strategic Performance Scorecard (which you’ll practice developing in SCOR Framework)
• Organize, prioritize, and solve supply chain problems based using prioritized Strategic Performance Scorecard trade-offs
• Solve for SC root causes and measurably improve SC performance rapidly
• Map different SC levels of understanding making it easy for management to understand the problem and your ask
• Create a standard transformation journey moving from context to As-Is to requirements and into To-Be - monitoring results as you go
• Introduce SCOR into your company in an organized manner that doesn’t interrupt business
• Successfully integrate your end-to-end supply chain partners
• Integrate project management (including agile) & change management from the start

...then you should register for both SCOR Framework & Implementation Essentials

Do I need Sustainability?

Yes

Gobal regulations and expectations demand it.

The beauty of Building Sustainable Supply Chains is that you use SCOR not only to integrate seamlessly with your existing supply chain, you also:

• speak the languages of sustainability and resiliency that fits into your supply chain strategy
• develop phased-in sustainability & resiliency strategies using your objective SCOR metrics showing capability and readiness
• use proven, global metrics and criteria so that you meet required law

Even better, Building Sustainable SC's allows you to still own your supply chain while also meeting global requirements, adding advanced digital tech, & growing the top line

You can mix and match SCOR Framework with Implementation Essentials and/or Building Sustainable Supply Chains - and get your career investment at a discount.
