To Supply Management Executives and Professionals

RE: ISM R. Gene Richter Awards for Excellence in Supply Management

The number and quality of applications received by ISM for the ISM R. Gene Richter Awards for Excellence in Supply Management in past years has been impressive. It is clear that the supply profession continues to grow in importance and sophistication, thereby making contributions to the overall success of the organization.

Because of the critical role of supply management, businesses survive and thrive only when each supply chain is carefully and creatively managed. Foremost in the profession are individuals and organizations that embrace leadership and creativity to manage complexity and risk. This sixth annual announcement and call for entries will build on the strong showing of previous years and provide examples of innovation and leadership that can be used throughout the profession to enhance performance, reduce expenses, increase profit and ensure increased revenue.

A group of well-known supply management executives and academics set policy and direction for the awards with a vision to "create a prestigious supply management awards program to recognize leadership and innovation in supply management and further the understanding and importance of supply management to business success."

The awards program is designed to:
  • Identify and share leadership and innovation in supply management practice within supply management departments
  • Provide recognition to supply management departments receiving awards
  • Promote supply management as a strategic contributor to the organization
  • Enhance the profession in the eyes of senior management
  • Demonstrate leadership and innovation practice through conferences, ISM publications, case studies and other media
