IIMC to address growing demand for professionals in SCM
Around 30% of Indian Small and Medium Businesses (SMBs) will consider intelligence decision systems to promote R&D and supply chain management (SCM) by 2025, according to the International Data Corporation (IDC) report titled “Worldwide Small and Medium-Sized Business and Digital-Native Business 2023 Predictions — India Implications”.
It further predicts that logistics and supply chain managers are more focused on meeting demand rather than just managing supply and therefore it is an ideal time for professionals to enhance their skills for a promising career in supply chain management http://nsdcindia.org .
