Overview
Mission
ASCM Greater North Jersey Chapter provides professional development and networking to the supply chain community. Fostering the advancement of end-to-end supply chain management through a body of knowledge, innovative research, systems, and methods to create value for customers, members, and organizations.
What it reported doing in 2024
Hold monthly professional development meetings where attendees learn about the latest concepts and trends in production and inventory control and supply chain management. The Chapter brings in leading local and national speakers to deliver the concepts and address questions. Due to COVID restrictions, the meetings were held online, thus eliminating the majority of the cost of live meetings (food, space rentals, etc.).
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Earned-program. 76% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
MIXED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of voting board members are independent and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
