Supply Chain Innovation Award™

Throughout decades of economic, business, and technological change, supply chains have proven to be remarkably resilient. Supply chain management professionals continue to innovate, finding new ways to improve performance, create value, and respond to rapidly shifting customer expectations.

The Supply Chain Innovation Award™ (SCIA) showcases these achievements on a global stage. Each year, supply chain teams from around the world submit real-world case studies that highlight measurable, collaborative innovations. A review panel drawn from CSCMP’s Research Strategies Committee (RSC) and the editorial board of SupplyChainBrain selects the top submissions as finalists, who then present their cases live at CSCMP’s EDGE Conference.

If your supply chain team has implemented an innovation that advances the profession and delivers tangible results, consider submitting your story to the Supply Chain Innovation Award™ competition.


Submission Period

The submission period for the 2026 Supply Chain Innovation Award™ is May 12 - June 5, 2026. Submit today!


2025 Supply Chain Innovation Award™ Winner

Quickcode.ai ft. Magaya
“How AI Turns Customs Chaos into Compliance Clarity in Seconds”

Presented by Shannon Hynds and Matthew Fotouhi, the case demonstrated how Magaya and Quickcode are leveraging artificial intelligence to transform trade compliance. Their integrated solution reduces HTS classification time by 90%, improves transparency in decision-making, and enables compliance teams to operate with greater speed and confidence.

Far from a gimmick, this is machine learning enhanced by human expertise — ushering in a new era in which AI supports accuracy, streamlines operations, and minimizes shipment disruptions across complex, global supply chains.
