About us

SCLAA delivers value to Member Supply Chain and Logistics (SCL) professionals and practitioners, and prosperity and competitive advantage to Australia through development of the profession and practice of  SCL, collaboration with industry stakeholders and promotion and recognition of world’s best practice.

To serve and advance the interests of Supply Chain and Logistics professionals and practitioners in Australia.

Having served the profession for four decades in various forms, most recently as the Logistics Association of Australia, the SCLAA embraces its proud history and benefits from its experience and established relationships. However, now is the time to look forward with fresh vision.

The SCLAA is the truly independent Australian Supply Chain and Logistics association run by Members, for Members. The SCLAA is a registered company, limited by guarantee with an experienced Board of Directors and is proud that its activities are conducted Nationally and via State divisions, in accordance with the wishes of its Members.

The SCLAA constitution enshrines:

• The service of Members as its raison d’etre,
• The democratic vote of Members as the ultimate authority, and
• The opportunity for practical and determinative Member participation in Association affairs.

It is a true Member based, not-for-profit association whose proceeds are channelled into Member benefits. Given this, the SCLAA:

• Offers a strong advocacy of the highest standards to develop the profession;
• Contributes to Australia’s excellence in Supply Chain, Transportation and Logistics;
• Contributes to the development of the capital, human and intellectual infrastructure necessary to ensure that Australia is internationally competitive in all aspects of Supply Chain and Logistics.
• Enhances the opportunity to achieve career advancement and enhanced credibility through access to the latest information and networking with fellow professionals and practitioners.

The SCLAA has established divisions in all states providing an active networking and educational events program to meet the needs of its Members. At the National level, the SCLAA conducts annual Supply Chain and Logistics Conference and a National Awards ceremony. At the State level, the local content and flavour of events is the strength of the SCLAA. The structure and local representation of the SCLAA at the State level maximises the relevance of activities to its Members.

With over 100 diverse activities each year, including Breakfast Briefings, Site Visits, Logistics Lounges, Sundowners and Golf Days all Supply Chain and Logistics professionals and practitioners will find their particular needs catered for. Events may vary State to State.

SCLAA’s low Membership fee is less than the subscription cost of the multiple industry magazines that Members receive as part of their membership.
With:

• The ability to network with industry colleagues, prospective customers and suppliers,
• The opportunity to be ahead of the game in market intelligence,
• Recognition as a Supply Chain and Logistics industry professional and practitioner,

the choice is obvious

In fact, do you have a choice? Can you afford not to be a Member of the Supply Chain and Logistics Association of Australia?

The SCLAA offers Corporate Membership packages for multiple Memberships within a company. We exist to service Members, whether they be a corporate or individual Member.

Strategic Reach

Through its reach, and in support of our Members’ aspirations, the SCLAA is engaged in a number of strategic programs designed to enhance the profession, the industry and the competitive advantage of Australian businesses.

The SCLAA’s Membership of the Australian Logistics Council (ALC), representation on the Board of GS1 Australia, pivotal role in the establishment of Supply Chain industry round tables and engagement with many other industry and government bodies is indicative, among many other initiatives, of the reach and strategic focus of the SCLAA.
