January 2002: Purchasing Today® becomes Inside Supply Management®

When NAPM becomes the Institute for Supply Management™ next year, the flagship publication will also change. Effective with the January 2002 issue, Purchasing Today® will become Inside Supply Management®.

Just as the association is evolving in order to serve the widening field that encompasses purchasing and the broader view of supply, the magazine will cover all aspects of supply management.

You'll notice the new name and a new design, but you'll also find the same quality information you've come to expect from this monthly publication. Whether your favorite portion of the magazine is the shorter, "how-to" Strategies & Solutions articles or you clamor for in-depth feature stories, you'll still find them in Inside Supply Management®.

In addition, our regular columns will remain:

  • Just In Time: News, notes, and quotes, just when you need them.
  • Professionally Speaking and View from the Chair: Commentary from ISM leaders.
  • Toolbox: Formulas, calculations, and tools to perform your job.
  • Tech Talk: The latest in technology that impacts supply management.
  • Legal Briefs: Contracting issues, regulations, and other legal issues.
  • Case Studies/Analysis: A hypothetical case, presented with real-world solutions.
  • ISM News: The events, announcements, and information about your association.
  • Book Resources: Recommended reading on leading-edge supply management topics.
  • Speaking of…: Our question of the month, posed to your professional peers.
  • Manufacturing and Non-Manufacturing NAPM Report on Business®, the NAPM/Forrester Research Report on eBusiness, and Commodity report: the latest economic reports, news, and trends.

Watch your mailbox for the redesigned magazine and be sure to give us your feedback. If you have any questions or want to learn how you can be involved in producing this award-winning publication, contact Berta Duffy, editor, or 800-888-6276, ext. 3085.

Other ISM publications:

  • NAPM InfoEdge will become ISM InfoEdge.
  • The Journal of Supply Chain Management will retain its title.
  • Inside NAPM will become The ISM Advantage.
