Press Release Summary: QC Software Joins Council of Supply Chain Management Professionals
Press Release Body: QC Software (www.qcsoftware.com) is dedicated to providing a warehouse control system (WCS) when it is needed and appropriate. According the Jerry List, "We are proud to be a member of the CSCMP. All of the staff at QC Software supports CSCMP's commitment to provide opportunities for supply chain professionals. Along with CSCMP, QC Software is dedicated to creating awareness of the significance of supply chain to business and to the economy."
Founded in 1963, the Council of Supply Chain Management Professionals (CSCMP) is the preeminent association for individuals involved in supply chain management. CSCMP provides educational, career development, and networking opportunities to over 9,000 members and to the entire profession.
CSCMP was originally founded as the National Council of Physical Distribution Management (NCPDM) in January 1963. NCPDM was formed by a visionary group of educators, consultants, and managers who envisioned the integration of transportation, warehousing, and inventory as the future of the discipline. At that time, physical distribution was just beginning to edge its way into the corporate lexicon and make its considerable presence felt in the business community.
In 1985, recognizing the growing field of logistics, the association\'s focus broadened as it changed its name to the Council of Logistics Management (CLM). It stayed that way until 2004 when CLM\'s Executive Committee voted to become CSCMP, effective in 2005. Part of this supply chain expertise permits WCS vendors, like QC Software to develop a strategic partnership with a manufacturing and distribution firms in which there is a clear understanding of the organization's unique shipping needs, and actively assist in reaching and measuring cost reduction goals and service needs.
The WCS solutions provided by QC Software enables companies to streamline their warehouse operations with the lowest total cost of ownership in the industry ensuring increased corporate profitability.
