Quality
APICS-Chicago has maintained its Platinum status
for eight solid years!
The Passport Program is a quality program that promotes
action and innovation. With the assistance of an instructional
template, individual APICS chapters plan and execute
a strategy of progress within the field of production
and inventory management. Specifically, they identify
an opportunity for innovation, prescribe a program to
address the opportunity, implement the program, measure
the results, and undertake further action to improve
future outcomes. It is a description of the organization's
overall experience that is submitted to a panel of veteran
APICS volunteers and regional leadership. The panel
evaluates the programs and provides objective guidance
through instructional feedback.
The Passport Program encourages strong organizational
management practices, including solid strategic planning,
continuity among leadership, and recruiting and retaining
members. Individual members also benefit by learning
management skills that translate to on-the-job success.
These skills involve stronger communication techniques,
enhanced writing abilities, expanded leadership acumen,
and sound financial practices. The awards are given
to certain levels of achievement and sustained performance
beginning with a Bronze award, then Silver, Gold and
after five continuous years of Gold Platinum is awarded
