This is a new one on me. I won't guarantee a response - I've never seen it discussed here, but give things a day.

Others?

SmoiThis sounds to me a lot like an American outfit that certifies Supply Chain professionals http://www.apics.org/

Why not check out their website and work your way from there? I am sure the tests and testing procedures would be comparable to the one you are working on.

Yeah - I went to the web site as well. Like I said, I haven't seen any threads specific to the organization. But if anyone does have any related thoughts I'm sure they would be appreciated. Supply chain issues are frequently discussed here. I'm hesitant to start a new forum, but supply chain issues is a significant element of what is discussed here. I will say I wouldn't begin to go back through, identify and move every related thread to a new forum.

I would like to see folks on the supply chain side represented here.

I discussed with our Supply chain professionals in our organization to find out more about this certification. They mentioned our Supplychain professionals are certified through APICS (as mentioned above) either:

Certified in Production and Inventory Management
http://www.apics.org/certification/CIRM/default.htm

or

Certified in Integrated Resource Management
http://www.apics.org/certification/CPIM/default.htm

Not many people are aware of this UK based certification. :o

I guess an organization of this reputation will have a Singapore Chapter or atleast South East Asian chapter? Check it out. You may find more details from the local chapter.
