Percentage of SM Employees
According to the CAPS MoSM Report, only 1.9% of the total headcount across all industries are supply management employees. The number has remained relatively flat the last five years, while the scope and expectations of the function have grown in contrast to other corporate functions. Some have used this metric (along with CAPS’ ROI) to justify an investment in headcount. Members can access The Metrics of Supply Management: A Cross-Industry Report 2024 in the CAPS Library to see the full report.
