CSCMP exists to:

• Provide opportunities for supply chain professionals to communicate in order to develop and improve their supply chain management skills

• Aligned with shippers, carriers, warehouse operators, material handling equipment manufacturers, consultants, or any other similar industrial grouping
• An organization that engages in matters where various members have contrary interests
• An organization that endorses, sanctions, or discourages supply chain-related legislation, products, or services
