Supply Chain Management Center (SCMC) is a strategic program within the U.S. Department of Energy aimed at enhancing procurement and supply chain management for its contractors.
The Supply Chain Management Center (SCMC) is a strategic supply chain program dedicated to simplifying the buying process to enable savings for Department of Energy Environmental Management and National Nuclear Security Administration prime contractors.
Founded in 2006, the SCMC works collaboratively to develop commodity agreements that can be used by multiple sites across the enterprise. By leveraging more than $6 billion of annual spend, the SCMC is able to yield lower prices and optimize business systems, providing cost savings and value to our customer, the DOE. Our success is attributed to our close working relationships with the contractor locations, as well our focus on achieving the mission & vision, while measuring performance to established goals.
