The model of SCM success The Supply Chain Operations Reference-model (SCOR), owned by the independent global corporation Supply-Chain Council, is a reference model that allows companies to introduce standards to business process re-engineering, benchmarking and process management. In the absence of ISO certification for collaboration, companies must introduce SCOR internally and into intercompany supply chains. Companies should adopt SCOR for a current re-engineering project that crosses multiple entities inside the company. Also, they should incorporate SCOR into hiring procedures to fill open positions. The US Defence Department has been implementing the SCOR-model for several years, with every branch of Service having now applied the model in some way. It says implementing the SCOR-model is helping it provide cost-effective and responsive logistics support to ensure readiness and the sustainability for the total force across the spectrum of military operations.
