Welcome 2020 - 2021 Chapter President Keith Moncrief
“The supply chain stuff is really tricky.” ~Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla and SpaceX.
Welcome to the website of APICS Industrial Crescent Chapter based in the beautiful Upstate of South Carolina!
I am Dr. Keith “Goose” Moncrief, and it is my honor to serve as chapter president. As the quote from Elon Musk alludes, Supply Chain is a vital linchpin to entrepreneurial success. For the lucky few who can skillfully navigate the challenges posed by everything from labor strikes to global pandemics, the rewards are bountiful.
Through its professional development and certification programs, APICS trains and educates Supply Chain professionals in industry-wide standards and practices. Please note the many training opportunities listed on this website. Additionally, every third Tuesday, the chapter hosts Professional Development Dinner meetings, offering attendees exposure to widely-acknowledged thought, but occasionally to Supply Chain thought-leaders themselves. Finally, APICS Professional Development and certification instruction leads to unparalleled networking opportunities for Supply Chain professionals at all levels.
With Warm Regards,
Goose Moncrief
President

Chapter Past President 2019 - 2020 John Center, CPIM
Welcome to the APICS Industrial Crescent website.
My name is John Center and I am the Past President of this great chapter in Upstate South Carolina. Supply chain is very important to every part of a business and across all industries. Just think about all the steps it takes to get the tissue paper on the shelf for you to take home or those medical supplies to the doctor’s office to treat you when you’re sick. Some of us have small roles to plan and some of us have to think big for corporate Strategies.
APICS teaches these connections through education and development meetings. Checkout our education offerings on this website. Professional Dinner Meetings where we host speakers on a range of topics, usually held every 3rd Tuesday except summer time.
Have a great day and always learn something new.
Sincerely,
John Center
President
