The result was merge to APICS. Given that the subjects themselves have merged, it appears obvious (and uncontested) that the articles should be merged also. Sandstein 21:05, 24 July 2020 (UTC)

The encyclopedia has an entry for Supply Chain Council:
Supply Chain Council – A non-profit professional society dedicated to the meeting the needs of supply chain management professionals; most famous for its development and use of the SCOR Model.
The Supply Chain Council was founded in 1996 by the consulting firm Pittiglio Rabin Todd & McGrath (PRTM) and AMR Research and initially included 69 voluntary member companies.
The Supply Chain Council now has about 1,000 corporate members worldwide and has established international chapters in North America, Europe, Greater China, Japan, Australia/New Zealand, South East Asia, Brazil and South Africa. Development of additional chapters in India and South America are underway. The Supply Chain Council's membership consists primarily of practitioners representing a broad cross-section of industries, including manufacturers, services, distributors, and retailers.

The article notes:
The book notes:The Supply-Chain Council (SCC) was founded with the aim of creating an "ideal" model of the Supply Chain. ... The increasing diffusion area of the SCOR model acceptance in the USA since the late 1990s, seen alongside the rapidly climbing number of SCC members, is an indication that a de facto standard for Supply Chain analysis is developing. With the reinforced efforts of the SCC to create a user basis in Europe via the foundation of a European Chapter, the SCOR model will, on these indications, continue to be diffused throughout Europe.
The SCOR model was developed and promoted by the SCC as a pan-industry standard for Supply Chain monitoring. The SCC was founded in 1996 by the Business Consultancy agency Pittiglio, Rabin, Todd & McGrath (PRTM) and Advanced Manufacturing Research (AMR), and originally included 69 voluntary member firms. Of equal importance for the SCOR model's diffusion are the respective inputs of manufacturers and implementers of system technologies, researchers and scientists, and governmental organizations. All of these groups participate in the SCC's activities and in the development and enhancement of the model. By the beginning of 2006, the SCC had more than 1,000 members worldwide and had branches in North America, Europe, Japan, Australia/New Zealand, Southeast Asia and South Africa.
...
Member firms pay a small yearly subscription in support of SCC's functions. All who use the SCOR model are asked to make reference to the SCC in documents or representations applying to the model, in addition to all cases of its application. Additionally, members are urged to regularly visit the SCC's internet page and make themselves familiar with the latest information available in order to ensure that they are using the latest version of SCOR. The SCOR model represents, in a transposed sense, the SCC's consensus with respect to the management of the Supply Chain.

The book notes on page 161:
Chapter 23 is titled "Supply-Chain Council".In Chapter 23 we profile the work of the Supply-Chain Council (SCC). The SCC is a non-profit organization formed by industry to promote supply chain integration. Since much of its work is directed toward the integration of information along the supply chain, we describe it at this point in the book.

The article notes:
Within the private sector, the foremost industry authority on SCM is the Supply Chain Council (SCC). The SCC is comprised of nearly a thousand companies specializing in SCM and logistics functions. They perform SCM studies and research, present conferences and workshops, provide training, accomplish case studies, and publish articles on SCM issues and best practices. The SCC is the author and developer of the Supply Chain Operations Reference (SCOR) Model, a proven methodology and the only cross-industry supply chain standard being accepted, which facilitates the blending of business objectives, strategy, process, and technology.
...
As previously mentioned, the SCC is recognized as an authority on SCM. It consists of nearly a thousand companies worldwide, many of which use the Council's services of training, research, and SCM implementation processes. The SCC is the author of the SCOR Model. The SCC created the SCOR Model as a way for companies to communicate their supply chain process. It establishes a framework for examining the supply chain, categorizing processes, and assigning metrics.
...
The Air Force has obviously benefited from the work done in the private sector. The current effort underway to shape the SCM process using the SBPM is a result of the SCC's influence. The Air Force fully intends to proceed with the SCOR Model as it maps out the supply chain processes and further defines its metrics. The Air Force should proceed with the use of SCOR through the SBPM process, but should try to accelerate process completion, since history has shown that long, drawn out systems and process solutions rarely succeed. Continued participation in the SCC is also recommended. The SCC offers numerous benefits to the Air Force by providing information on industry best practices, access to leading experts in SCM, and consulting authorities. A study of the companies on the Forbes Magazine's Fortune 1000 list reflected a significant difference in the profitability of companies that are members of the SCC versus those that are not. The bottom line results were nearly two and a half times higher for SCC members than nonmembers.

- Comment, another afd where the nominator does not appear to have considered a "merge", in this case to its own subsection within the history section of APICS, although with the sources identified by Cunard, it meets WP:GNG so is a mute point. Coolabahapple (talk) 15:52, 29 June 2020 (UTC)

- Merge as suggested. Actually, the article its says, "merge with APICS." Bearian (talk) 17:17, 22 July 2020 (UTC)
- Merge with APICS as already suggested. I don't personally think it's notable enough on it's own for a separate article, but it's worth mentioning in the APICS article at least. Even when account for the new sources provided by Cunard. The majority of which seem like trivial mentions and the in-depth coverage that would be needed for this to be notable. The sources can help add notability to it in the merge target though. --Adamant1 (talk) 19:27, 24 July 2020 (UTC)
