Overview

Dow Integrated Supply Chain Rotation Program (ISCRP) is a development rotational program designed to broaden your business acumen, cross-team expertise and critical professional skills in Integrated Supply Chain. We are on the journey to the End-to-End (E2E) transformation to ensure our sustainable growth and continuous strong competitiveness in the dynamic Asia Pacific region. As a new employee to Dow, ISCRP presents a perfect platform to set the foundation for a successful career with the company.

Program Structure

A Dow leader will organize you in two job assignments within Integrated Supply Chain, including Dow Logistics, Business Supply Chain, Customer Services and Improvement & Scale (Focus on process and system) teams. You will spend approximately twelve months in each job assignment, learning best practices and processes that will help you develop critical functional and leadership competencies. One or more senior Dow leaders will serve as mentors to guide you along the way.

We transition to E2E by breaking down silos and re-engineering the way we work. Workers completing activities in the E2Es, including value-add, knowledge or transactional tasks. ISCRPer's work will include but not be limited to creating value, improving operational efficiency, reducing operational costs and providing superior service to improve customer experience. ISCRPer's work will cover the Asia-Pacific region, located in Shanghai as Asia Pacific Integrated Center. Demand Planning-to-Fulfillment (DP2F) is an integral part of the New Dow. As a true E2E, this model requires us work across functions and disciplines with a customer-centric mindset in order to perform at the highest level for our customers.
