The SCAN Board of Directors and Executive Management Team recently gathered in Estes Park, Colorado, for a strategic planning session focused on the future of the organization and the evolving needs of the global supply chain community.
The meeting provided an opportunity for Board members to reflect on SCAN’s accomplishments while looking ahead to the challenges and opportunities that will define the years to come. As global supply chains face increasing complexity driven by security risks, technological advancements, geopolitical developments, and resilience concerns, the Board engaged in important discussions about SCAN’s strategic direction for 2027 and beyond.
A key focus of the meeting was ensuring that SCAN remains a trusted, member-driven organization that continues to deliver value to its members and partners. Through collaboration and long-term planning, the Board explored ways to strengthen SCAN’s role in supporting supply chain security, trusted trade, and industry best practices across the global trade community.
The timing of the meeting also allowed the Board to prepare for the upcoming U.S. Customs and Border Protection Cargo Security Summit in Dallas, where SCAN leaders will engage with association members, customs officials from around the world, and private sector stakeholders. These discussions are critical to understanding the challenges organizations face throughout the supply chain and identifying opportunities for greater collaboration and innovation.
As SCAN looks toward the future, the organization remains committed to advancing secure and resilient supply chains through partnership, information sharing, and continuous improvement. The strategic conversations held in Estes Park are helping lay the foundation for the next chapter of SCAN’s growth and impact.
With 2027 already on the horizon, SCAN is preparing today for the challenges and opportunities of tomorrow.
