The USC Marshall Randall R. Kendrick Global Supply Chain Institute (Kendrick GSCI) was founded in 2011 to help predict, mitigate, and alleviate supply chain disruptions and risks. It capitalizes upon our global network, industry experience, and renowned faculty, through Network, Education, and Advanced Research (NEAR). With NEAR, we can keep our member community up to date on industry macro and micro trends, news, and critical horizon scan by utilizing digital tools such as ARIMA (Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average) Statistical Models, the applications of Lean Six Sigma practices and uses, probability and data modeling, and integration transportation and time series analyses for forecasting. Our executive master degree in Global Supply Chain Management is currently ranked #1, for the third year in a row, for best online Master’s in Business, by U.S. News and World Report. It combines a business education similar to an MBA with the strong and functional knowledge expected from a Master Degree in Supply Chain Management or Logistics.

The Kendrick GSCI is committed to ensuring that we solve supply chain disruptions in a holistic manner with more efficient processes by investing in thought leadership, digital transformation, research, education, demand planning, and network design. The past few years taught us that our supply chain was at risk for problems. Supply chain is supposed to be invisible and when it’s not, there is major chaos. In response to these challenges and their economic impacts, the global supply chain is undergoing significant transformation with Kendrick GSCI leading the way. The Kendrick Institute recognized and helped solved many global supply chain challenges for the past 12 years and will continue to cultivate innovative, critical-thinking, and resilient student leaders in a digitally transformative, data-driven supply chain ecosystem delivering triple-bottom-line results: agility, resiliency, and sustainability.

The Kendrick Institute continues to be leader in supply chain innovation and problem solving by hosting the 11th Annual Global Supply Chain Excellence Summit: Driving Strategies, Technology, and Human Capital in a New World Disorder, on August 9-10, 2023, at USC Marshall.
