Enabling and Promoting Excellence

摘要

John Westerveld, CPIM, works for supply chain planning software company Kinaxis. He says having a broad understanding of the APICS body of knowledge, as well as his APICS Certified in Production and Inventory Management (CPIM) designation, were big factors in getting hired for his position there. "My role leverages the APICS body of knowledge every day," he explains. "We have to build detailed supply chain scenarios in our derno environments, write about supply chain concepts in our marketing material and blogs, and talk about supply chain ideas when we meet with consultants and analysts. APICS has been a strong foundation that allows me to confidently fulfill my role."
