The State of Supply Chain Management report measures the current status of Australian enterprise supply chains. It provides an in-depth analysis of the situation of the supply chain industry in Australia as a result of the quantitative analysis carried out on the basis of survey responses. Year on year, this report aims to demonstrate the role of the supply chain within the organisational structure and the overall business operations for organisations across the country.

In the 21st century, companies don’t compete, supply chains compete. The report provides an understanding of the maturity across eight components of supply chain management: Collaboration, Technology and Automation, Integration, Compliance and Regulation, Logistics and Distribution, Risk Management, Sustainability and Procurement.

Currently, a paradigm shift is being observed where company leaders are attentive towards

the improvement of the supply chain and are employing innovative strategic decisions for overall supply chain efficiencies and better end-to-end experiences.

Now is the time to elevate supply chain management as a profession in its own right. As the not for profit organisation positioning as the Professional Accreditation Body for Supply Chain Management in Australia, Australasian Supply Chain Institute (ASCI) is preparing the framework for a Professional
Accreditation Scheme for the profession. Supporting this Scheme is a Continuous Professional Development and Educational Program including globally recognised certifications and short courses.
