SMC3 Looks to Identify Innovative Supply Chain Collaborators

Logistics Management and SMC³ are soliciting entries for the seventh annual Alliance Awards, which recognize supply chain collaboration and innovation at the highest level, through November 2.

By judging case studies involving three or more supply chain partners, one of whom is a shipper, the award panel of supply chain experts identifies stakeholders that collaborate to overcome critical industry challenges. Winners craft innovative solutions to extraordinary issues. The awards are presented in partnership with Logistics Management at SMC³’s Jump Start conference, held January 28-30 in Atlanta, Ga.

Submission guidelines, as well as case-study criteria, are available at https://www.logisticsmgmt.com/allianceaward.html.

In addition to award recognition and a panelist role at SMC³’s Jump Start conference, Alliance Award winners receive a dedicated feature in Logistics Management. A feature on 2018 winner Frios is located here.

Winners will also receive a free reprint of the Logistics Management article for distribution to their customer base, courtesy of SMC³. SMC³ and Logistics Management will also distribute press releases notifying the industry of the Alliance Award winners. Finally, winners will be recognized on the SMC³ website and listed in the January 2019 issue of Logistics Management.

Past award winners include the collaborators Michelin, Cold Box and Averitt; GNC, DHL Global Mail and Spend Management Experts; and Macy’s, Hub Group and Comtrak.
