India’s First. Supply Chain Ranking Presenting India’s Top 20 Supply Chain Champions.
ISCM launched “Supply Chain Champions” – the first ever research backed, data driven ranking of India’s top 20 supply chains.
For the first time in India, The Institute of Supply Chain Management has launched a ranking of the top supply chains in India. ISCM tracked the supply chain performance for over 300 listed companies in 22 sectors for both quantitative measures of excellence and strategic intent across profitability, performance, value creation, Sustainability, Governance, and DEI.
The ISCM Supply Chain Ranking methodology identifies companies that exemplify higher levels of supply chain performance, and a superior level of value addition during the 2012-2021 period.
ISCM developed an India centric model for ranking supply chains in India, based on quantitative data and qualitative factors using data from annual reports. The methodology is data driven, measures supply chain maturity, intensity and democratization, and incorporates peer group comparison.
The Supply chain ranking is an objective measure of the supply chain excellence across firms. For the first time, Indian companies will have an objective way to:
1. Recognize the best performing supply chains in the country
2. Benchmarking themselves against the best in class supply chains in their sector and the country.
3. Create a realistic definition of supply chain excellence and understand how supply chain strategies contribute to value creation
4. Set goals for their supply chains based on the best practices.
ISCM initially identified 1000 listed firms across 22 sectors, based on their revenue and profits. From these 1000 firms ISCM identified the top 10 companies in each sector.
ISCM analysed the qualitative factors based on three major classifications:
1. Supply chain intensity – we identified and quantified the company’s efforts on digitalization, reach, planning, sustainability, converting these qualitative parameters into a measurable and comparable quantitative measure.
2. Democratizing supply chains – capability building and DEI – that represent how the company will build a culture of excellence, not only within the organization, but also across the entire value chain.
3. Supply chain maturity – Change Management, Resilience, strategy – a measure of the excellence in supply chain management – from planning, procurement, logistics and supply chain, sensing demand, anticipating disruptions and their approach to sustainability.
In the inaugural year ISCM identified 20 top supply chain organizations across India Inc. The winners are:
Hindustan Unilever Ltd, Colgate Palmolive India ltd, Reliance Industries Ltd. Nestle India Ltd. Asian Paints Ltd. Maruti Suzuki India Limited Dabur India Ltd. SRF Limited
