ISM-7 Counties is an affiliate of the Institute for Supply Management (ISM), rich in history and dedicated to educational excellence. As our name indicates, we serve the professional, educational and networking needs of supply chain colleagues in the six New York Counties of Westchester, Rockland, Orange, Dutchess, Putnam and Ulster, plus Fairfield County in Connecticut. In 2007, we formally changed our name from NAPM-7 Counties to ISM-7 Counties in order to align ourselves with the new paradigm of Supply Chain Management and its 21st century methodology and principles.
The mission of ISM is: To Lead Supply Management. ISM’s membership base includes more than 40,000 supply management professionals with a network of domestic and international affiliated associations. ISM-7 Counties, an affiliate, is a not-for-profit association that provides opportunities for the promotion of the profession and the expansion of professional skills and knowledge.
