We are a non-profit educational organization addressing operations management and supply chain management issues, and providing professional development opportunities to our members.

As you'll find in our Vision and Mission statements, our Chapter serves our membership, area organizations, and the

local market primarily through 4 pillars:

1. Education

2. Continuous Learning

3. Career & Employer Services

4. Community

The Chapter holds meetings and webinars each month from September through June. These meetings present an

excellent opportunity to share & learn best practices, as well as to network with other industry professionals. Our

current meeting location is the Georgian Club at I-75 and I 285 near the Cobb Energy Center.

Additionally, we regularly offer Education and Training, to include classes that support our CSCP and CPIM

certifications. Public classes and private, on-site offerings are both available.

Throughout each Program Year, which runs from late August to June, you'll find plant tours, special networking

events, and community service opportunities. For Program Year 2016, our Chapter is looking to support groups, in

particular:

1. Leaders in Operations Management and SCM fields

2. Veterans in transition & need

3. Students studying SCM, Logistics, and Operations Management

We are always looking for energetic volunteers to help manage the chapter. If you are interested in developing

leadership skills and contributing to our organization's success, ask any Board Member how you can help.

Please let me know if there is anything that we can do to help you and your company. Thank you for visiting our web
