The International Supply Chain Protection Organization (ISCPO.org) announced three new additions to its Board of Directors: Dr. Alex del Carmen, founder and CEO of Del Carmen Consulting; Tracy Nini, president of WRC INC.; and Paul Ganz, senior director of asset protection for The Home Depot.
“As we continue to expand our footprint into different business verticals, the three industry professionals are going to be a great compliment to the current board of directors,” said Glenn Master, ISCPO president and chairman. “Paul will be leading our networking initiatives that connect current members to our preferred vendor partners. In addition, his experience in retail and supply chain loss prevention will naturally assist in further connecting retail supply chain loss prevention with the ISCPO. Like Paul, Tracy Nini has an extensive network within retail loss prevention and will be leading the effort on membership, recruitment, and veteran involvement with the organization. Lastly, the onboarding of Dr. Alex del Carmen is going to add an entirely new benefit related to educational research and more specific to criminal justice trends that have an everyday impact on supply chain security and loss prevention.”
Master concluded by saying: “Our goal at the ISCPO is create a networking environment for both private and public sectors worldwide that are looking for a platform, where they can easily connect with peers who have direct involvement in the global supply chain.”
