The document describes the Customer-Chain Operations Reference (CCOR) model, which was created by the Supply Chain Council to provide a standardized framework for describing and linking supply chain management processes, metrics, best practices, and technologies. The CCOR model captures the consensus view of supply chain management and provides a unique structure to support communication among partners and improve supply chain effectiveness. It contains three levels of process detail - configuration, category, and element - to allow for decomposition of processes.
